I know every company has the right to advertise where they want. That isn't the issue here. The issue is that media matter used contrived, false and misleading information about x to coordinate a boycott on advertising which will hurt x. That is an illegal conspiracy.

It's interesting that this happened right after the heads of some of these companies dined with Xi the day before. It also happened right after the FCC passed their new equity rules. Media Matters likely had this planned and ready to go.
