TLC's "19 Kids and Counting" has lost more than a dozen sponsors since one of the show's stars, Josh Duggar, admitted last week that he had molested several girls when he was a teenager.
Companies including Ace Hardware, ConAgra foods, Party City, BEHR Paint, Pure Leaf Ice Tea, Ricola, Firehouse Subs, Pizza Hut, Sherwin-Williams paint, Crayola, Allstate Insurance, and King's Hawaiian have pulled their sponsorship from the reality TV show, which has run on the network since 2008.
Those companies join Walgreens, General Mills, Payless ShoeSource, and Choice Hotels who have previously said they were yanking their ads from the show.
Each of these companies took to social media to explain to fans and consumers that they were ending sponsorship of the show.
"We share your concern for the safety of children and have no plans to air Crayola commercials during future episodes," Crayola tweeted Wednesday.
You know at this points I cannot even imagine which companies would want to be associated with this family.
Or for that matter who would still want to watch this hypocrisy riddled reality show.
Especially since it appears that the family is still being investigated by DHS.
It looks like its time for these people to get real jobs like the rest of us, and stop making a living off of the Duggar mother's over producing birth canal.
But can't Palin advertise her own reality shows there, in conjunction with the duck people and ted what's his name?
ReplyDeleteBetter monitor this and make sure it isn't just a smoke screen for these entities sponsoring a spinoff of victims.
ReplyDeleteI doubt the advertisers are going to sink their businesses by creating a mass boycott.
DeleteBut maybe Franklin Graham and the other religious kooks could advertise on "19 molested and Counting"
Wait!
ReplyDeleteIt's Wednesday and there is more of the Duggar's from InTouch?
Money talks. It was industry that forced Mike Pence off the national stage with his 'Let's Hate Gays' bill, and now industry has taken the public pulse again and knows we'll be watching to see who is willing to underwrite these liars and criminal facilitators if TLC dares put it back on. I hope the Duggars wisely invested what checks they've cashed so far.
ReplyDelete19 Kids and Cunting lost sponsors? No problem, Sarah Palin to the rescue!
ReplyDeleteAnd don't forget "Mike Huckabee 2016" ads!
DeleteLol! Funniest comment I've seen all day!
DeletePossible made for cable movie lines for the scene-
ReplyDeleteDHS: Let us see the child so we can check that they are ok!
Duggar(s?): But Jesus and liberal smears! Bill Clinton and Fox News! NOOOOO.
DHS: We WILL call for police assistance if necessary! You people aren't much different fro the sovereign citizen kooks!
Duggars: We got friends! Corporal Hutchins is a friend of mine-wanna see some pictures? Governor Huckabee of floriduh and Idaho!
DHS Supervisor: Enough of this chit! Nine One One their santorum smeared asses!
Does anybody know if Josh Duggar's mother went on a Wild Ride?
ReplyDeleteWhat Palin and others don't understand is the tv show was taken off the air due to the parents actions brought on by a Duggar child feeling up female siblings and others, The parents orchestrated the tv show by covering up the allegations along with stonewalling the subsequent investigation. It's not the media's fault! Blame is in the Duggar parents lap and no one else.
ReplyDeleteSarah and Todd are buying a "Josh Duggar Day Care Center" franchise and will open it in Wasilla.
ReplyDeleteO/T I see $arah is race baiting on fb again, I smell desperation
ReplyDeleteFunny exchange on her FB...
DeleteCorinne Coates As stated before, the political views of the Republican Party in the 1800s were much more aligned with today's Democrats. This is a very poor and incorrect use of historical "fact". All you've proven is that Republicans will jumble the truth to try and make their social unconscious views seem even remotely humane. Everyone, do yourself a favor and go to the library. Don't use #sarahpalin as your teacher or American historian.

I see a reality show possibility for Sarah, sneaking in from the outside!
ReplyDeleteShe'll claim the Duggars' First Amendment rights are being violated, while she's in talks with TLC about "Sarah, Five Kids,
Two Grandchildren, Three Dogs, a Pig, and, hmmm, a Husband."
Sadly, since her tubes are tied, Sarah can't produce any more kids on her own, but she could get Bristol and Willow working on that right away. And Track, too, when she can find him.
Amazing Wasilla!
O lordy, don't forget Sarah's Medal of Honor and 9/11. Sarah Palin the only person to win a Medal of Honor, when she won Dakota Meyer's heart. A man that heard the angels sing when he knew he had to fight Saddam because bushes told him so.

Seriously, what's keeping Michelle Duggar's uterus from falling out like a limp balloon (the medical term is "prolapsed uterus" and it happens a lot)? It has to be the most overworked muscle in her body.
ReplyDeleteAnd her brain the most underworked.
DeleteI keep expecting to hear a news report that her uterus detached itself from her body and was last seen running down the street yelling "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God almighty I'm free at last!"
DeleteHer uterus has prolapsed more than once. Shouldn't a uterus hanging out into your vagina convince you that having more kids was out of the question?
DeleteOn a serious note, medically speaking, they have "vaginal plugs" that can help keep the uterus from prolapsing. It is called a pessary. One would BET she has one.
DeleteShe is always hunched over - check her out - I think that keeps the uterus in for her. If she stands straight it's all over!
DeleteShe hasn't been pregnant for 4 or 5 years now I think so I'm guessing she's finally reached menopause and can't get pregnant. She was popping them out every one or two years for the longest time. So I'm guessing it's finally quits for her. Wonder if JimBob is still tupping her since his seed is falling on fallow ground now.
DeleteI don't know enough about the Quiverfull movement to know what happens when the broodmare enters menopause. How does she gracefully exit stage left and morph into a grandparent?
DeleteDrops dead of exhaustion, making way for the new filly (not a fertile daughter)?
Deletedowl
Extra has Sarah yowling about the Duggers and Lena Dunham.
ReplyDeleteI guess where and when I grew up, the Midwestern 'rill 'merica in the "50's when everything was so wholesome and good, was just as f'ed about sex as it is today. It was bad. Funny uncles. Screwed up grannies, Horny cousins. Later, a music teacher that buggered the boys in the band. He was a scout leader, also too. Rural school with K-8 and only one teacher. Lots of sexual play happened. And, with the adults a lot of drunk and disorderly. If anyone talked, there was hell to pay. But mostly things were hidden.
Wish I had, had a sister like Lena. In the realm of things that would have been a nothing much.
Me, in the rill merica called Missouri, 50s: We all called it playing doctor, the only instrument being a flashlight. We'd each pull our pants down for maybe 10 seconds. That was the first time I saw a penis up close. It just made me giggle. When I was about 13 I think I narrowly escaped molestation, on a horse, with me sitting far front on the saddle and the horse's owner behind me, just the two of us for a while on a dirt road. God I was so naive. It took years for me to understand why he picked up the horse's pace for a bit, and why he held the reins in both hands in front of me with his hands resting on my thighs about a half inch from my crotch. I was so involved in trying to stay on the horse I didn't recognize what was happening. I feel lucky that's as far as it went. Nobody in my family ever sexually abused me and I'm grateful for that too, and that my son never experienced it.

DeleteI'm glad to see the sponsor numbers dropping for this TV show as I don't think it should be on the air! The family is not the holier than though Christians they have tried to project!
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing ads for birth control a few years ago on this show. I wish I had taped it.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad this is coming to an end. These people exploit their children for profit, convincing viewers they're the all-time pro-family, staunch conservative Christian family in the country. It's a perfect example of this cultist church think that pretends it's unyoked from the sinful world, yet uses the world's systems to use their kids to perform and make money.
ReplyDeleteIt's pure narcissism at work here, done by parents who care about money and fame, no different than any other fame-whoring family who use themselves and their kids on reality television. No difference. None, nada. Those little kids do not need to have cameras intruding in their innocent worlds by 'entertainment' gurus who bend their knee to the systems of the world. They don't fool me, no cotton- pickin' darn way!!
The Kristian Kardashian Kult
DeleteI said this before on another thread about the Duggars: having done a lot of amateur genealogy in the past, I found more than one ancestor or 3rd cousin, twice removed, etc., etc., of long ago who had very large families. BUT that was before birth control was available and in each instance the families had lots of help. In each of the large families, the children were all spaced at least 2 years apart, some maybe 2 1/2 or 3 years apart. Michelle Duggar cranked out 19 kids in 20 or 21 years with only two sets of twins. Incredible. Not saying it isn't true, just saying it's amazing and very foolish that she was able to do it.
ReplyDeleteI've never watched their show, reading the descriptions about it disgusted me. I don't see why having a huge family makes any one family more devout or faithful. From what the public does know about Josh, IMO, there's has to be a lot more that we don't know. They are ignorant, stupid and disgusting.
Seriously wondering if this fanatical productivity would be possible without fertility drugs.
DeleteCan you imagine what Michelle's body is like? Her organs are probably all floppy and shoved into odd positions. He cervix is probably hanging halfway out her vagina. She probably she leaks urine every time she sneezes. Her abdominal skin must be stretched to its limit, never to return to form. Yeccch.
DeleteAnd yet somehow Jim Boob hoists himself into action? All in the name of arkie republican jeebus and the ratings?
DeleteYuch!
My grandmother was one of 21 or 22, she was the youngest. They lost 6 or 7 in one shot with the flu epidemic in the 20's I think it was. Several sets of twins were born. Not many lived to adulthood. They needed kids to work the farms back then, but not many lived to adulthood.
DeleteJimBob still goes after her though.Might as well use a mayo jar - lol!
DeleteMaybe she has had vaginoplasty with their TLC $$$. Buy one get one free?
I'm reading a book on the Quiverfull movement right now. Women's are only purpose is to serve men - men are the representatives of God on earth.
Seriously nuts and incredibly sad. If they think they can take over the world - who is going to do the smart work? Doctors, physicists, etc? The women can't go to college yet homeschool the kids.
We should just let them keep breeding - they will die out as they will be too dumb to care for themselves.
Anonymous 12:50 p.m. A labor force certainly was one of the reasons for having children on the farm, but the overwhelming reason was the lack of birth control. My Catholic family also bred like rabbits. I imagine every pregnancy was fraught with fear on some level, imagine the possibility one might die giving birth. And the other children received fewer moments with mom as new babies were added to the family. If you were the first girl it was likely your job to raise up the babies too. I can’t even imagine the sadness that came with inevitable infant and childhood mortality. Remember there were no antibiotics and for a woman even an unresolved urinary tract infection sometimes meant death. What a bummer a raging yeast infection would have been! (Sorry Gryphen! But we women have some regular run of the mill infections that would be entirely miserable to manage without antibiotics and anti fungals. You gotta love modern medicine!!!!) The Duggar family is a freak circus and the parents are grifting idiots like the Palins. They are pointless people.
DeleteYes @1:28, they are pointless. The only things they contribute are feces and diapers, lots of each.
DeleteBabies, toddlers and little kids of reality TV shows don't have the ability to know what's real and what isn't. They are made to perform for the camera and see these strangers telling their parents how to stand, talk, order them around. They don't know how to throw off the mantle of 'actor' after a day's work. They eventually see the double-personality of their parents, the parent who works for the show and is on cue, or the true parent after the crew is gone. They get to see the 'real' mommy and daddy, but don't have the reasoning skills to understand why mommy and daddy are faking and smiling and pretending during tapings. It really messes up a kid's mind to what is happening in these reality TV shows.
ReplyDeleteThese shows should only be done by adults. It's shameful that in the U.S.A. that kids are exploited like this and there are no laws to protect them. This is a form of mental abuse, or mental torment, as a young child is torn between loving the double personalities, feeling betrayed by the 'fake' mother/father while they work, and loses sense of identity.
Christian? Mommy, can I go out to play? Not now, dear, we aren't set up for fake play yet, and you'll dirty your dress. Mommy when will they be ready? Any moment now, get ready to smile and pretend you're having fun. Wait until the make-up lady does your face.
An example of exploiting their children is Sarah Palin - as we watched all those years ago!
DeleteShe was the worst (except the Duggars are going to overtake that rating more than likely!) in bringing her oldest daughter, Bristol, to the foerefront when being pregnant out of wedlock. What kind of parent would purposely do that? Sarah and Todd Palin are horrible parents and have been proven so many times.
Keep children off these reality shows. Better yet - stop watching these 'supposed' family/Christian shows! They are far from what they try to project to the world!
Hmmmm I wonder if one if the 19 Dugger kids is in touch with In Touch mag? Wouldn't surprise me if they have a whistle blower who is tired of the stuff going on in that family.
ReplyDeleteSo hoping Jana excapes or that someone offers her an escape hatch - surely she has the trust money that as supposed to be set aside in order to go to college as she wishes. Shed your virtual burka, Jana.
DeleteYes! I never watched it, nothing of interest to me in any way. Jim Bob is a creep and his wife is a twit.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be surprised if Sarah Palin or Bristol are working on a reality TV contract right now. It could be the wedding cancellation wrecked their plans for a wedding show; they've been quiet lately, probably writing a draft for a new show. Agree with other commenters here, they might be trying for an "Amazing Palins" showcasing the pig, dogs, cat, and Bristol living out of her camper, while she looks for a place to live.
ReplyDeleteYou have to be fairly interesting to have a successful reality show. Time and again the Palins have been unable to live up to that expectation. They're as dull as they are dumb.
DeleteOr extremely freakish in soem way - Kim Kartrashaina's ass and sex tape. The Duggar's 19 kids. Wome publicly schmoozing and screwing men with gold digger intentions and vice versa. MOrbidly obese inviting abuse in order to be thin (Biggest Loser. ) Uber skinny girlswith eating disorders invting humiliation to be models. Just desperate to be famous again or more so after failed careers - DWTS.
DeleteRegarding a DHS person visiting the Dugger home - could not help but wonder if one of the other sons also has that "curiosity" about girls.
ReplyDeleteMaybe some of the children got the rod? I think it's perfectly ok in Arkansas if there aren't any bruises or blood. But they would have to check that out with the co-stars of the shitshow to know for sure.
Delete@10:46, Or if JimBob is a curious one?
DeleteOR, creepy Jim Bob 'teaching his girls' about their bodies that belong to him, God and a husband. A husband is the prize at completion of the ATI 'Christian Homeschooling' booklets after 12 years of training on 'how to be a good wife.'
Deletedowl

ReplyDeleteEven money on one or more sons curious about little boys?
DeleteI wouldn't be surprised, but I'm actually more worried that Josh is now curious about his own daughters. You don't just get spontaneously cured of being a pedophile.
DeleteUh oh, when will Palin come out and vilify these "lamestream" companies for shitting all over the poor, poor Duggar herd.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it time for you to make a faceplace rant about these companies that will leave the buggar clan destitute and hungry, palin? Maybe you should head on down to Arkansas and give them a supportive visit. With cameras rolling of course. Then maybe you can go visit the duck clan and demand the name of the girl who molested the son (according to his new book). You could contact her to give your support.
How greedy does tlc have to be to REFUSE to see that this show is NOT savable? They can have a big pr cakewalk right through tiananmen square, it won't make the show savable.

They're not going to advertise it's canceled. They'll wait a bit, then it just won't be renewed for another season. They'll try to keep it as quiet as possible.
DeleteAnd that spinoff with Jill and Jessa? History. It will never go beyond whatever stage it's in now. It will simply cease to move forward.
This family is done.
That family should be afraid to show their faces anywhere! And, I'll bet they are!!!
DeleteHow can we contact TLC? Does anyone know where to find a list of their sponsors ?
ReplyDeleteThey've lost 19 advertisers so far, I have seen the list but did not save it.
DeleteYou can contact TLC regarding the show by googling 19 kids and counting TLC
The page for the Buggars is still up and you can leave a message, but don't hold your breath waiting for a response.
TLC must be Quiverfill or one of the Cults, like the Palins. They will do anything to keep the Duggars on a show.
DeleteThis isn't the first issue with child molestation on TLC reality tv shows. I'm surprised they have any sponsors at this point.
DeleteYou are all just jealous because Michelle is getting all that Jimmie Bobbie sausage.

Just FYI about how this site looks to a casual newcomer:
I stopped by this site, to see if there was any word on Sarah Palin's serious interest in running for president. All I see is hard-core negativity, name-calling and bashing of everything and everybody, including democrats, republicans and each other here on this board. Nasty, nasty names and rudeness. Jesus preached peace and love, treating others as you'd like to be treated and turning the other cheek. This site is the opposite. No need to respond, since I won't be here... :( :(
-------------------------------------
".....and the crowd went wild!" hahahahaha
Did Hannity happen to ask Sarah whether or not she was running? I didn't watch the 'interview' just can't stand her voice! She may have told Gannity beforehand she wouldn't be talking about that subject.
DeleteI've been at the peepond fucking with them all day..
Deletethe mods have been pulling their hair out trying to ban me...
so easy to bait all those "good" Christians
Raise your hands if you can see Bristol just like Michelle Duggar with 19 kids. Most likely Bristol's kids would all be born to a single mother.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many of those 19 are Josh's or are there some hidden in the attic away from the cameras. I do not think Josh went to his parents and confessed and said he was sorry. I think either he got caught by his parents, the girls reported him, there was some soreness in private parts of the girls bodies . He would have never confessed until he was caught. The parents are hiding a ton of stuff and the kids will never tell, they grew up in a cult.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I wonder too.

Today’s shocker? Their Washington County DHS came to the house on Wednesday, May 27th to investigate an allegation of involving a minor child and they were turned away by Michelle and Jim Bob. The DHS worker had to call 911, summoning law enforcement to the Duggar household in order to be allowed to see for themselves that the minor Duggar child was alright.
ReplyDeleteDuggars are so much like Sarah and Mini-Me.
2:39 PM I'm glad to see the DHS worker didn't put up with the bullying from the Duggars (probably Mr. Duggar!) and pulled in the cops into the matter to get her job done!
ReplyDeleteThere is always a way to work around these supposed Christians!
I never watched a full episode of this show, but stopped while surfing channels once, and the thing in that episode that struck me was the mother was bragging about her girls helping some missionary organization by filling shoe boxes with coloring books (bible stories, of course) CRAYONS and a little stuffed animal along with uplifting verses from the Bible - to children who just suffered a typhoon.earthquake. mudslides. It's a nice way to spread the word, but don't they need things like clothes, clean water, blankets, towels, sheets, medicines, toilet paper, etc? ????
ReplyDeleteWhat good will crayons do when people are clawing through rubble looking for loved ones? The house they live in is opulent, all from their sponsors, not that material goods and putting food on the table mean anything, but TLC needs to pull the plug and let this show die.
The only reality is the parents enabled their son at the expense of their girls, and kept it secret while, i suppose, they made a lot of money for themselves, their church, and TLC. This show is Fundie Paydirt.
I'm glad the sponsors are withdrawing. Perhaps it's time for JimBob to withdraw or wrap it up and go home. They're a couple of sex addicted hicks who get free babysitters and child labor from the older kids, while they boink their brains out, literally and figuratively.
