BP America has taken a strong stance with iHeartMedia, demanding that their advertisements not be placed on podcasts that funnel ad revenues into political contributions, as brands continue to be cautious about associating themselves with political parties or social causes.The announcement came after it was discovered that the massive radio network had transferred hundreds of thousands of dollars in ad revenue from Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz's "Verdict" podcast to Truth and Courage PAC, a super PAC that supported Cruz.
