Were any of Reddit's advertisers contacted?

I keep thinking about the issue for advertisers these days. If the "Mypillow" guy is getting shit just because he has ton of airtime advertising on Fox, where can an advertiser go? It's like every show or channel or magazine is controversial for one reason or another now. Though I'm pretty sure the "Mypillow" guy is laughing all the way to the bank.

Either the ad-supported website is going the way of the dodo, or some new company will enter that market in competition with Google.
Unless there are exclusive agreements I'm not aware of, it won't even take an antitrust case to make this happen. Though I'd love to see one.
Of course, advertising isn't going to determine Reddit's policies anyway. Their Red Chinese co-owners are.

I prefer Poal, of the exodus reddit-clones, but I've moved most of my browsing over to dot win.
Regardless, I'm done posting to reddit, and I'm scaling back the commenting and voting in favor of engaging elsewhere. Maybe these others will take off if some of the more active users move.

It's only about 90% that bad. There are still three dissident subreddits, and two fun subreddits, I find worthwhile and which have not been duplicated here or on Poal. But at some point they will move, or Reddit will destroy them.
