#DumpKelloggs Trends #1 on Twitter Following Breitbart Boycott

#DumpKelloggs was the most popular trending topic on Twitter in the United States at the time of this writing after Breitbart News organized a boycott against the company on Wednesday.

Breitbart News organized the boycott after Kellogg withdrew their advertising from Breitbart News, claiming that the site and its conservative readers were not “aligned with our values as a company.”

The boycott, which has also taken place under the hashtag #DumpKelloggs, has generated thousands of posts on Facebook and Twitter, with the official Kellogg’s Facebook pages for various products being bombarded with complaints from Breitbart’s readers.

“We regularly work with our media-buying partners to ensure our ads do not appear on sites that aren’t aligned with our values as a company,” said Kellogg’s Kris Charles in a statement this week. “We recently reviewed the list of sites where our ads can be placed and decided to discontinue advertising on Breitbart.com. We are working to remove ads from that site.”

Pretty much every company does 7:33. Radio Shack, Sears, Montgomery Wards, Woolworths, etc. Nothing is forever except herpes.

It may be obvious that Corn Flakes and Frosted Flakes are both made by Kellogg’s, but did you know that Hot Pockets and L’Oreal share a parent company in Nestlé? A ginormous number of brands are controlled by just 10 multinationals, many products are owned by Kraft, Coca-Cola, General Mills, Kellogg’s, Mars, Unilever, Johnson & Johnson, P&G and Nestlé. It’s not just the consumer goods industry that’s become so consolidated. Ninety percent of the media is now controlled by just six companies, down from 50 in 1983, Likewise, 37 banks merged to become JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and CitiGroup in a little over two decades.

We must stand together!! Against coporate blackmail..old mom and pops were better for our safety and freedom, so buy local. These mega companies work against freedom !!
Globalism, is a demonic cabal of evil seeking to seize control of the money. Only To allow enforcement and total control of you!! The move to a cashless system MUST BE STOPPED. OR You will be marked(chipped) and wont need cash. Youll pay with your forehead stamp and lose your soul.

And the ignorant keep cheering!!

Why in the world would any rational business leader state that they are not interested in 1/2 of the country's business? That is business suicide. Their personal opinions do not represent what is best for the corporation, and as such, they should be dismissed by the board of directors, for harming the company.

Breakfast cereals were one of the biggest rip-offs of the 20th century, and they're still going strong.
