According to internal X sales team documents reviewed by The New York Times, X may lose “up to $75 million” as more than 100 major brands—including Airbnb, Amazon, Coca-Cola, Google, Microsoft, Netflix, and Uber—have stopped advertising, while “dozens” more are considering pausing ads on the platform.
Recent data provided to The Independent by the market intelligence firm Sensor Tower “suggests that just six of the companies that pulled out” initially—including Apple, IBM, Sony, Comcast, and Paramount—accounted for 7 percent of all US ad spending on the social network."
According to The Independent, advertisers aren’t just afraid of ads appearing next to antisemitic posts, but “must also contend with the risk of their money directly funding extremists” due to X’s recently launched creator revenue-sharing program.
CNN noted last week that remaining advertisers include the NFL, Walmart, State Farm, Wendy’s, Office Depot, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Economist, USAA insurance, Formula 1, and Mondelēz International.
Internally, X seemingly continues to blame the current advertiser exodus exclusively on watchdog groups calling out antisemitic content, which The Washington Post reported has “surged more than 900 percent on the platform.”
In an internal meeting with employees at X last week, Yaccarino “made no mention” of Musk’s “endorsement” of an antisemitic post and instead “attributed the company’s problems” to Media Matters, The Times reported.
