Swedish cider company Kopparberg has withdrawn its advertising from GB News.said its advert ran on the channel "without our knowledge or consent".
Chaired by former BBC political presenter Andrew Neil, the channel has promised to remain truthful in its reporting but challenge the "echo chamber" of the "metropolitan" news. Fraser Nelson, editor of the Spectator which Neil is also chairman of, told BBC News that Kopparberg's boycott could lead to a consumer backlash.
Nervous about the competition, eh? Trying to hit them in the wallet? Pathetic tactics like this is just another reason why the BBC is an anachronism.
GB news should go licence based
GBNews More pricks than a family of porcupines… 👍
BakerDanni It’s a drink for everyone* (*apart from viewers of an OFCOM regulated news channel with higher viewing figures than Sky & BBC)
It's all about suppressing free speech, it will get to the stage where we will have a APP to speak to and that will translate using the correct pronoun and speach so no one is offended But unhappy and frustrated and then we will have anercy and a break down of society THE END.
Why can't the cancel twats on here just not watch it if it's that bad? Surely if it doesn't have an audience and no one wants it, it'll die anyway.. Why are they so interested in controlling what others do, say and watch?
It's a drink for everyone except people who are right wing, who can get fucked.
Who cares. Alcohol shouldn't be advertised anyway. Bit low from the BBC but hey you'll be gone soon 😉
Their loss is our gain, they don't make a cider that is known to most of us. Cider from SW of England is best anyway.
BBC clearly worried about GB News and have to promote negative stories about the opposition. Is this really newsworthy
Tastes like piss, good enough for champagne socialists though.
What reason do they give?
AccountabilityCulture isn’t Cancel Culture 🤷🏽♀️. If you do the offense then you can’t cry when you held accountable. Hate speak isn’t profitable GB .
boycott KopparbergUK
So people are being swayed not to hear news or information from a source the companies believe is hate speech? What on earth do people think that a company has their welfare at stake! They are profit-driven... stop buying after this from them and they will soon change sides!
So, “Stop the Hate” campaign have engendered this. The irony seems to be lost on these children.
Bravo Kopparberg. You’re back on the shopping list.
Already provided my thoughts on this elsewhere yesterday but...
MediaWeasel Why advertise on this show when there's only 20 people watching ?
Pathetic virtue signalling. Appeasing the Cancel Culture mob.
People never buying it again or buying more of it based of a news channel they don’t even watch are fully retarded
AggieRyan Well done to them. DontFundGBNews DontFundHate
I bet most haters of GBNEWS haven’t even watched it for more than 5 minutes 😂. There’s some real juvenile comments on here 😂
Cider and Swedish just doesn’t go …. Said Rosie .
I will never turn on again
Never heard of this Kopparberg stuff & now I will never drink, buy or serve the stuff
A good start from GBnews its triggering all the right people..
Its a trendy pop for girls
Drink for everyone... except them. Lol grow up.
Great bit of PR by thier ad company...agree to advertise then 'suddenly' withdraw to attract the attention of the cash rich hypocritical woke crew. Nice.🖒
So glad Really, we need to find out what was the middle company that thought it was a great idea to put these brands' adverts on GB News…
KopparbergUK works both ways back to henrywestons and Thatchers for me 🤷🏼♂️ stop being so Woke !
Great. I do love a Kopparberg!
Kopparberg, a drink for soy boys & the authoritarian left
Nice !!
It’s their loss then and leads me to believe who iwon’t purchase from in the future.
Is news, news anymore? I feel the vast majority of it is the media telling us how to live by sucking up to climate change, creating divisiveness against race and providing polarising views on Brexit. News can be absolute turd most of the time.
Is it just me or is Strawberry&Lime Kopparberg 'bottled heartburn'? 🥴 Couldn't stay on them for the night but they're alright as a Summertime quencher (...until THAT kicks in!💘) I much prefer 'Adult Vimtos' a.k.a Strongbow Dark Fruit 🍻
🇵🇸Palestine || The Israeli occupation forces attack a Palestinian woman immediately after she raised the Palestinian flag during the setters' flag march at Damascus in Jerusalem. SaveSheikhJarrah savesilwan savelifta
it's a drink for everyone which only supports news echo chambers for some
Good, we must destroy GammonBox News asap.
Is that the copper berk on the right?
No worries ill cancel my TV licence and send it to GB news
Lol. So on the face of this Bare back cu*TS recognise GBNEWS ! The station they tried to throttle at birth. Kopparberg at the heart of press censorship.
New,news channel same ol corruption
It’s called GBNews, the clue is in the name so stick your over sugared Swedish piss and we’ll gladly buy quality British products. Keep trying to justify your presence bbc, you’re days are numbered
Woke snowflakes
Rubbish cider from a corporate wokeist!!
Excellent start! Starve them out.
Lmao gay
Guess I'll be switching to rekordalig (however it's spelt). They can pull what they like, it's still better than the Bullshit Broadcast C*ntporation. 🖕
The bbc are scared of GB News?
UK has the best apples and the most happy fish in the world, according to British conservatives. Maybe so. Otherwise they live in the country lost in the nationalist madness.
Defund the BBC make it go private.
Virtue signalling nonsense in the name of marketing strategy to make more money. Don’t give them the oxygen of publicity and give their brand a swerve.
It tastes like rats piss 🤮KopparbergUK
They’ll all bin it, hardly surprising, can you imagine the state of the viewership, the intelligence or lack thereof… it’s never going to be a demographic any sane advertiser would target
Not a drink for me!
I thought the BBC does not advertise products yet you claim it's a drink for everyone
It's a crap drink anyway! So what is your point BBC. Are you worried about another news channel
If you don't drink Kopparberg now because of this then that's cancel culture
Calling all the entrepreneurs out there; Do you care what the political opinions of your customers are? If you find out they have different opinions to you, do you refuse them? Do they have to fill out a political questionnaire beforehand. Do you only advertise to The Woke?
I didn't know BBC where doing adverts. Getting ready for when we stop being taxed I suppose.
23Cookieboo Good start! More should follow. Advertisers should also pull out from daily mail & friends too. We don't need hate instigator journalists.
They can keep their drinks.
Too sweet for me , plus most ciders give me heartburn as for advertising don't think I've seen it on any TV channels
Spot on, this is a gutter channel of outlanders
And? They’re allowed to withdraw just as much as any other company is allowed to advertise with them. Are the viewers of this channel going to go after all the companies who haven’t yet advertised with them?!
There are a lot of sad people with too much time on their hands 🙄 go and do something constructive instead of just sitting on the Internet being destructive !!
These people need to point out what they are objecting to. It's all been pretty tame stuff so far
Correct punctuation isn't, apparently.
Spineless choice in our McCarthyite times.
Good for them! And good for me because it’s one of my favourite ciders
so much free advertising for GBNEWS
Pathetic
Ok, so that’s KopparbergUK off the shopping list then.
GBNews it's pod cast not a news channel
Pathetic
I'll drink to that. Cheers!
Props to KopparbergUK. The right decision, swiftly made. GBeebies
