These days, advertisers aren't in the market to play games with their brand's image. Should a client proceed to step onto the wrong side of history, many companies have reasoned that it's become safer to drop first and ask questions later. It's a reality that Fox News host Tucker Carlson has come to understand first-hand time and time again, in this instance following his recent crusade against Black Lives Matter.

By now it's no secret that Carlson holds no love for the organization, nor the goals they seek to achieve. In recent episodes of his admittedly popular Fox News shows, Carlson has made disparaging comments against Black Lives Matter, going so far as to aim his sights on Sesame Streets -- focused political ire aimed at a gaggle of muppets.

Seeing as we're in the midst of what feels like a systemic revolution, thanks in large part to protests against police brutality and anti-Black racism, many companies have opted to offer their support to the movement. As Tucker Carlson has maintained a firm stance against BLM and everything they stand for, several of his advertisers have recently made the decision to cut ties with the Fox News Host. According to Deadline, Disney, T-Mobile, Papa Johns, Vari, and SmileDirectClub are five of the latest to walk away from FOX News. 

On the topic of Disney, the mega-corporation claimed that its ads were mistakenly run on FOX due to a third-party error. T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert took to Twitter to maintain that his values did not align with the controversial host, and put it rather succinctly with a "bye bye Tucker Carlson!" Papa Johns issued a similar statement, writing " Placement of advertising is not intended to be an endorsement of any specific programming or commentary. We have decided to suspend all resources allocated against opinion-based programming."

As of now, Fox News has yet to comment on the mass exodus of advertisers. One has to wonder if Tucker Carlson has a stern talking to in his future. 

By now, you probably know about the fall from grace of John Schnatter who is the man responsible for the Papa John’s empire. Schnatter said a racial slur during a meeting and eventually, the whole world heard about. From there, he was removed from the company and all of his shares were bought out. In fact, Shaq has now taken a huge role with Papa John’s, which just goes to show that we are living in a simulation.

Now, Schnatter is contributing to the end of the world as we know it, thanks to his brand new TikTok account. Yes, that’s right folks. The man behind some of the greasiest pizza on the planet is now a TikTok star. If you were wondering what kind of content he posts, well, you won’t be disappointed. As you can see from the video below, he flaunts his wealth and shows off the insane mansion he has.

When you walk into Schnatter’s home, you are immediately greeted by a large statue that also doubles as a clock of sorts. He has numerous pieces of gold-encrusted furniture and it looks like he has more money than he knows what to do with.

Even without Papa John’s, Papa John’s is still living the good life while us mere mortals fight to stay afloat. Sometimes, life truly isn’t fair.
