Fox News host Laura Ingraham faced an advertiser boycott after mocking Parkland student activist David Hogg's college rejection on Twitter. The hosts discuss the role of Media Matters in orchestrating the pressure on advertisers and critique the "bullying" narrative surrounding the event. They also briefly touch upon the complexity of the American GPA system and advanced placement courses.

The hosts discuss the "scam" of Advanced Placement (AP) courses in American high schools, which allow students to achieve a GPA higher than 4.0. Adam Curry explains the European decimal grading system, where a 6 is a passing grade, and expresses confusion over the American A-F system and its four-point basis.

The discussion turns to the "Advanced Placement" (AP) system, which allows students to achieve GPAs higher than 4.0 through extra credits. One host characterizes this as a "money-making scheme" that has become a requirement for admission into top-tier public universities. This system is criticized for creating an uneven playing field and complicating the path to higher education.
