Full disclosure, I'm an Amazon Prime member but even I think they should pull their ads.

Amazon.com Inc. is coming under pressure remove ads from right-wing news site Breitbart News Network.
The list of companies removing their ads from Breitbart has mushroomed in recent months to include Seattle-area brands, such as T-Mobile and Nordstrom.
A group of anonymous marketers known as Sleeping Giants have orchestrated the anti-Breitbart campaign, which has led 1,600 companies – including BMW, Visa, Uber and Lyft – to pull ads from the newspaper, according to The Daily Beast.
Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN) remains the biggest holdout, the group says, because of the sheer size of its advertising distribution network.
