Funniest thing I’ve seen all day!

Thanks! My lawyer said that courts are not supposed to overturn arbitrations. She quoted cases, and Judge Tunheim said, "One of those is mine" (which we knew). Lindell's lawyer said the arbitrators interpreted the contract wrong. I'm pretty sure we'll win, I just don't know when.

Fox News and Mike Lindell’s MyPillow are taking a break
Lindell said he’s been ‘canceled,’ but a source with knowledge of the situation said he just hasn’t paid his bills

MyPillow, the bedding company founded by conservative activist Mike Lindell, has long been a prominent sponsor for Fox News, its commercials comfortably woven into the fabric of the network’s programming over the past decade.

But the partnership appears to have hit a wall. On Friday, Lindell announced on Stephen K. Bannon’s podcast that his company’s media-buying agency was told this week that the network would no longer accept MyPillow advertisements.

Lindell told The Washington Post they got no explanation for the decision, but he thinks it’s connected to his hiring of former Fox host Lou Dobbs to anchor shows on his website FrankSpeech.com. Dobbs’s first guest, on Monday, was former president Donald Trump.

But a person with knowledge of the situation who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment said the partnership has not been canceled but rather has been paused because Lindell has failed to pay for his ads since August.

This person added that Lindell is not banned from advertising on the network. A Fox News spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.

Lindell hotly denied this assertion, saying that “of course” his company has paid for its ads. “I just checked and we paid them $4 million for ads in December alone,” he said. “Your sources are false!!!! Try again!!!”

The person with knowledge of the situation said that Lindell’s December payment was for ads that aired in June and July.

Lindell framed the network’s current prohibition as indicative of cancel culture. “It’s disgusting. I’m beside myself,” he said, adding that “it should be almost illegal that you don’t accept money to buy ads when you’ve been doing it this long.” (He said that MyPillow spends $1 million to $2 million per week on Fox advertisements.)

BREAKING: I'm in Iowa with my crew, and our car just got STUCK in the snowstorm, so I used the opportunity to record an EMERGENCY BROADCAST with @realMikeLindell!

@FoxNews just banned Mike Lindell's @MyPillowUSA from advertising with their company after he had spent HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars on their network. According to Mike, he spends an average of $1 MILLION a week on ads on @FoxNews.

Mike has tried to contact Fox to understand why they cancelled their advertising contract, but he has not heard back from them yet. He thinks it is possible that @FoxNews banned My Pillow because Mike recently hired former Fox host @LouDobbs to join @LindellTVMedia. Also, Fox does not believe the election was stolen, and Mike is such a strong advocate for election integrity. So maybe they cancelled him as a strategic move ahead of the 2024 election.

Laura -- Mike Lindell played you. Lindell has been unable to pay for his MyPillow ads. Fox News on Friday seemed to confirm: 'As soon as their account is paid, we would be happy to accept their advertising,' a Fox News spokesperson said in a statement. #PayYourBills

Is somebody not paying FOX to play the ads?

Nah, Mike's smart, he would offer a stack of MyPillow vouchers – use code IMASFUCKEDASTRUMP for extra discount.
