Advertisers are abandoning Fox News host Tucker Carlson's show after he suggested that immigrants are making the US "dirtier." At least five advertisers are leaving "Tucker Carlson Tonight" or confirmed that they are no longer advertising with the show after his segment on immigration last Thursday. Carlson said that the US needs more "scientists and engineers" for increasingly automated and tech-centered jobs. Carlson responded on Monday, where he repeated his claims about immigrants and said that "the left" was threatening free speech, repeating the sentence containing the "dirtier" claim.

"Rob Kall's Bottom-Up: Tapping the Power of the Connection Revolution takes a very holistic view of bottom-up thinking and action, from changes in our psychology to our systems of work, living and governance. As someone who's been working to make bottom-up economics a reality for over 30 years, this book reinforces the need for and potential of redirecting our priorities-- and resources--from the few at the top to the many at the bottom."

Anthony Flaccavento, author of Building a Healthy Economy from the Bottom Up
