Despite Hannity’s claim, Gamgort did not apologize to Hannity.
I sure wonder what Gamgort is going to do after this obvious bribe though.
Story in a headline: Sean Hannity can’t afford to lose sponsors
This worked out great for Keurig. First, they were able to get their ads removed from a toxic TV show. Then they got a bunch of free advertising that no doubt garnered them some fans and sales from folks on the left. Then this idiot Hannity goes and buys 500 that he’ll be giving away that will help drive even more business to their brand. And the best part is that all those morons who busted up their coffee makers will probably go out and buy another Keurig now that Hannity said it’s OK. You really can’t make any of this up.
Unless they’re stolen, how does this punish Keurig?
Despite Hannity’s claim, Gamgort did not apologize to Hannity. In a letter to staff obtained by the Washington Post, the CEO apologized to employees “for any negativity” they experienced as a result of the announcement.
Hmmm … so, Keurig offered no apology to Hannity or his viewers and they are still not sponsoring Hannity’s show, yet Hannity is spending thousands of dollars on Keurigs (presumably to give them to those viewers who destroyed their own property in a fit of misdirected rage). Did I get that right? Am I missing any nugget of info that might shine a light of sanity on this?
He undoubtedly expensed them to Fox.
“I just bought 500 of your fucking coffee machines. You owe me some ad buys.”
I’ll go with Cult.
It all just reminds me of that scene in Straight Outta Compton. Eazy E didn’t care that they were smashing the album… they still bought it.
Will he be giving them away before or after that waterboarding he agreed to undergo?

I’m holding out for the Volvo giveaway.
If he’s smart he’ll do and say nothing, and just be thankful for the increased sales.
But there’s something crushingly pathetic about a TV host trying to buy his advertisers back.

[/quote]I bet you couldn’t brew, drink or even stir a cup of coffee before Hannity was begging to stop the experiment.
Yes, it’s so sweetly pathetic. Hahaha.
Is Keurig a Fox sponsor at other times? Perhaps there was a discussion of Keurig pulling more ads if this little matter didn’t get settled?
Hey Hannity, can’t believe you got cucked by Keurig. Hannity viewers, I CAN completely believe that you got cucked by Hannity.
Probably so. It doesn’t matter to you either way if you’re Keurig.
Tell ya what Sean, send one a them contraptions. You buy it m,kay… the company won’t mind at all what i do with it. Which would be to make coffee.
“To all of my supportive and devoted fans of the show, I am giving away
500 Keurig machines as a thank you for always standing by me,”
Don’t believe it till the check clears. On April 22, 2009, Sean Hannity offered to undergo waterboarding for charity as proof that it’s not torture. He still hasn’t done it. In fact, his stack nearly banged its head on the International Space Station when Scott Keyes of Think Progress pointed that out on his radios show in June of 2014.
