    BREAKING. The @nytimes just pulled their media sponsorship from the Saudi Arabian Investment conference sponsored by Crown Prince MbS. Every other American brand should follow.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1050015908482158593 …

    Dear @CNN & @Bloomberg & @FinancialTimes & @nytimes & @CNBC & @FoxBusiness, Are you going to actually still go to the Saudi Arabian Future Investment conference headed up by Mohammed bin Salman after it appears he had a @WashingtonPost journalist killed? http://futureinvestmentinitiative.com/en/partners  pic.twitter.com/YMFn5PPs3g

        Not to take away from the severity of this issue, but why weren't companies removing sponsorship after it was discovered 15 of 19 9/11 hijackers were Saudia Arabian?

        I might add that media outlets should refuse to run ads touting the new Saudi Arabia. The least media outlets can do is to boycott a regime that murders journalists.

        I think every company should have pulled their BUSINESS from Saudi Arabia after 9/11. 15 hijsckers were Saudi’s.

        @WWE is still hosting a show there this month. The men's only event is the second installment of a multi-billion dollar contract. The wrestling is intermixed with tons of propaganda videos about how modern and forward thinking Saudi Arabia is.
