Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, BMW of North America, Constant Contact, Ainsworth Pet Nutrition and Sanofi are pulling ads from "The O'Reilly Factor" after a report about five settlements with women who alleged sexual harassment or verbal abuse by O'Reilly.
The decisions signal the potential of financial damage for "The O'Reilly Factor," the most popular show on cable news, and its network, Fox News.
Hyundai said early Tuesday that it is not currently advertising on "The O'Reilly Factor" but will remove upcoming ads because of the "recent and disturbing allegations."
"We will continue to monitor and evaluate the situation as we plan future advertising decisions," the company said.
Mercedes-Benz used similar language on Monday when it pulled its own ads.
"The allegations are disturbing and, given the importance of women in every aspect of our business, we don't feel this is a good environment in which to advertise our products right now," spokeswoman Donna Boland told CNNMoney.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, eh? The sooner we rid the planet of this network, the better.
If you ever heard the O'Reilly temper tantrum back in the day that has been all over YouTube for years, then this shocks no one.
But in your liberal superiority trip hold your own to the same standards. Just as all the tax cheats at MSNBC and the black racist commentators like Don Lemon.
But don't worry. The view from the other side (meaning conservative news) is the draw. They can easily replace O'Reilly and not lose a beat. I.e. Tucker Carlson actually increased ratings over Kelly (who is pretty forgot at this point).
