Larry Wilmore Skewers Josh Duggar as More Advertisers Flee ’19 Kids and Counting’: VIDEO

May 28, 2015 by Andy Towle

Wilmore

Advertisers for future episodes of TLC's 19 Kids and Counting (if there are any, considering the network dumped them) are dropping like flies, according to The Hollywood Reporter:

More than a half a dozen companies, including CVS Pharmacy, Ace Hardware, ConAgra Foods, Pure Leaf Iced Tea, Behr Paint, Ricola and Party City have now pulled their advertising from future episodes of the TLC reality show in the wake of star Josh Duggar's admission that he molested several underage girls 12 years ago, including his sisters.

Larry Wilmore took aim at Josh Duggar and his family on The Nightly Show:

"You mean to tell me that the family that goes around saying gay and trans people are pedophiles preying on America's young people actually has a pedophile that preys on America's young people. Oh, I hate pedophiles, but I love irony!"

Wilmore compared the Duggars to Baskin Robbins' 31 Flavors, and The Old Woman in the Shoe:

"When you have a sample size this large you're bound to have a few clinkers."
