Pillow salesman and conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell on Thursday spent a portion of his day at the Conservative Political action Conference shouting about Fox News — a television network on which he frequently advertises — and airing grievances about House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s decision to let one of that network’s hosts access footage from the January 6 Capitol riot.
Mr Lindell, whose star turns in commercials for his MyPillow products made him a ubiquitous presence on Fox years before his promotion of conspiracy theories about the 2020 election made him a star in conservative media circles, has a booth at the annual right-wing confab for his eponymous Lindell TV streaming outfit.
