Mediaite reports:
While Fox Corporation, the parent company of Fox News, held their upfront presentation Monday, anti-Trump PAC The Lincoln Project trolled the network with a billboard truck urging advertisers and viewers to “#DropFox.” Upfronts have been held by television networks in May since the 1960s, to entice advertisers to buy commercial airtime “up front,” or several months in advance of the upcoming television season, and for the networks to promote their programming to the media.

.@FoxNews forced our billboard truck in front of their building to move. They called the cops there and ticketed our truck. It’s a clear violation of our First Amendment rights. Fox is scared of our message but we’re not backing down. #WeSeeYou #DropFox https://t.co/LRHJ2nJ8Ht

Tucker’s gone, but @FoxNews programming is still a cesspool of hate & division. Fox is brand unsafe & those advertising with the right-wing propaganda machine are choosing to associate themselves with its poisonous programming. We’re putting these brands on notice #WeSeeYou pic.twitter.com/UQDDqEEVbE

.@FoxNews echoes sentiments from Putin apologists time and time again. A network full of pundits cozying up to an autocracy…? It’s never been clearer Fox News is #BrandUnsafehttps://t.co/WaKQcxcmF6

Fox is run by chickenshits who dish it out but can’t take it. Their ad sales people were triggered our ads were wrecking their Upfronts.
A Fox exec called the NYPD to ticket and intimidate our legally parked driver into moving our ad truck.
We’ll be back in a few minutes. https://t.co/Sbs1XTR8Wz

So let me get this straight… Fox doesn’t want clips of their own show in front of their own advertising event? They called the POLICE to clear the street in front of the Manhattan building?
This sounds like Fox is making a scene. Must be awkward for the advertisers. https://t.co/QjsiFnumRj
