MyPillow chief executive and prominent election denier Mike Lindell
said Friday that Fox News has stopped running his company’s commercials, disputing the network’s assertion that it is simply because he hasn’t
paid his bills.
Lindell went public by tweeting that Fox, which had been one of
MyPillow’s biggest advertising outlets, had canceled him. He said in his tweet that he didn’t know why but that he suspected that the network was trying to silence him. Fox denied that.
Losing Fox was just the latest in a series of financial and legal
setbacks for Minnesota-based MyPillow and Lindell, who continues to
propagate former President Donald Trump’s lies that the 2020 election
was stolen from him, in part by rigged voting machine systems. Several
big-box retailers, including Walmart, have discontinued his products,
and lawyers who were defending him against defamation lawsuits by voting machine companies quit.
“As soon as their account is paid, we would be happy to accept their advertising,” Fox spokeswoman Irena Briganti said.
