stories about this which report that Amazon ignores all efforts to lobby them, even hanging up on consumers who call asking them to remove the ads, as soon as they say the word "Breitbart". I too am a Prime member and I signed a petition requesting them to pull their ads.

Here is the link (Not sure it's still active):

I would hate to boycott Amazon; they are my only supplier for many hard-to-get items that I need for health issues, and my main source for books and movies, but I'll do it if called upon. Breitbart and Faux News are threats to our democracy.
