NBC, Fox News Channel and Facebook all said Monday they will stop airing President Donald Trump's campaign advertisement that featured an immigrant convicted of killing two police officers.

CNN had rejected the same ad, declaring it racist....

Marianne Gambelli, Fox News' president of advertising sales, said the commercial was pulled on Sunday "upon further review." Fox did not immediately say how many times it had aired on either Fox News Channel or the Fox Business Network.

Real news tells: the truth, the _whole_ truth and _nothing_ but the truth. Real USAians do the same.

President Donald Trump can count on me voting RED as soon as I finish my morning coffee and get to the polling station.

I will try not to sit and watch the returns all day long. . . :)

It truly is in God’s hands.

Trump is a declared candidate for President in 2020.

What the TV networks have done actually violates Federal law.

They have made the deliberate decision to accept a fine at some future date as the price for hamstringing Trump’s message today.

Why isn’t censoring a message from one party considered an in-kind contribution to the other one?

Sad to see how racist these organizations have become:
NBC, CNN, FOX, Facebook.

Just because of the ethinicity of the criminal, they will refuse to show him bragging about his crimes on camera, about killing cops. Just because he is a white hispanic and an illegal immigrant.

Had he been of a different ethnic background, or color of skin they would have shone it.

That is RACISM.

It really takes a twisted mind and a twisted logic to claim that they did not show it because the ad was racist, that’s backwards. What a lame and cowardly excuse for their racism and bias.

What was wrong with the ad? I saw it. I must be dimwitted because I don’t see what is racist about it.
