CNN, ABC, NBC, and CBS all ban Trump's new campaign ad

[tenorly]

Trump’s 2020 campaign arm put out a new ad on Monday. The ad praised Trump for his accomplishments in his first 100 days. But a lot of good that does him when mainstream media refuses to even air the ad.

CNN, ABC, NBC, and CBS have now all rejected Trump’s campaign ad.

The networks have banned the ad because it states things that simply are not true. The biggest problem they have with the ad is that it labels the media as “fake news.”

CNN said: “The mainstream media is not fake news, and therefore the ad is false. Per our policy, it will be accepted only if that graphic is deleted. Those are the facts.”

1. Great! They need to do a whole hell more of this!

[CurtEastPoint]

2. What kind of psycho 'campaigns' three months after taking office? WTF?

[Turbineguy]

3. Reality TV star

trying to make himself legit.

[JDC]

11. The kind that is wholly empty to be sure

[forgotmylogin]

14. The kind who wants to raise money the entire four years in "campaign" mode.

Dolla' bills, y'all.

[niyad]

17. he has had a 2020 pac, apparently, since the day he began to soil the people's house.

22. Someone w dementia, who reverts to doing the things

they knew how to do well before the dementia. He has always said stupid stuff, but in these last few weeks, his staff try to cover for him 100pc of the time. Ivanka said she will be reading everything before he signs it. It's not like she has some special experience, but his family and staff are propping him up.

28. 1 Minute to Wapner

have your dispute settled here in our forum, The People's Court. Dah dah dah dah. People's Court. Dah dah dah dah. People's Court.

1 minute to Wapner. 1 minute to Wapner.

[CurtEastPoint]

41. Kmart sucks.

[Scarsdale]

33. Ivanka will read

everything before he signs it? What does SHE know? Doesn't she spend enough time away from her kids now? None of the tRumps are exactly Mensa material, but my god, surely there is a limit to how much they can put over on taxpayers. We should DEMAND a mental competency test on tRump, before he destroys this country completely. WHO is really running the country?

[Alice11111]

38. Yeah, it's about as bad as we can get...I hope.

[Squinch]

26. Listen, this is the new world. WE should be out there with ads refuting all his lies.

I hate the guy, but the one thing he seems good at is using the media. It's the one area we need to learn from him.

[Alice11111]

39. He is a genius at that...using the media for self promotion.

[cstanleytech]

30. A delusional one that is seeking the adoration of others to avoid facing the truth

which is he is despised by the majority of the country.

[Scarsdale]

34. The entire world

knows tRump is a buffoon.

[montana_hazeleyes]

43. That's what I think also.

It's really mostly about his need for the adoring people who support him enthusiastically. He wants that non stop. Over and over.

This whole thing with him is bizarre and evil.

[no_hypocrisy]

4. I went to youtube to look at the ad.

Couldn't help to notice that Trump added Andrea Mitchell/Mrs. Greenspan in his collection of "fake news".

[tenorly]

7. A nod to his anti-Semitic base no doubt.

Mitchell, ironically, was if anything a little too cozy with Trump and his stooges during the campaign - and her husband, of course, has always been a Republican.

They are, nevertheless, two the most hated people by Trump's base. Wonder why...

[Alice11111]

24. She has dogged our Fake Secretary of State.What an honor

to be on his list of people who don't kiss his ass 24/7.

[sheshe2]

5. ...

[Phoenix61]

6. So when the lie is about them

then they have a problem. They didn't have a problem pushing all the other lies from Twitler and his minions.

[monmouth4]

8. And lies re Hillary were okay too...Geez..n/t

[tenorly]

9. This is why they need Faux News.

Reagan knew what he was doing (after they spent a month or two explaining it to him, no doubt).

[JudyM]

42. Exactly. No sense of decency/responsibility about the larger lies.

NPR keeps giving interview airtime to rethug congressmen to lie about the bill, and other events, with barely a question, never mind an outright challenge, to their assertions.

[Dawson Leery]

10. The entire ad is a lie.

Also, it is too early for 2020 campaign ads.

[still_one]

12. A little pleasantly surprised by this. It sure didn't stop them when they swift boated Kerry by

accepting that garbage

My bet is they will cave

[tenorly]

13. Good point.

They not only played that ad all the live-long day, they gave it mountains of coverage in the newscasts themselves - which guaranteed that everyone and their brother would see it at least 30 or 40 times by the time the election rolled around.

And even then, they had to steal it from Kerry.

[Alice11111]

25. Really! Good point! It still makes my blood boil to know

What they did to a true hero, while GWB failed to show up...but then, they blamed that one on Dan Rather.

Maybe at least this will wake up the media.

[B Stieg]

15. Even a dog knows...

you don't poop where you sleep.

[packman]

16. IT'S NOT ABOUT RUNNING AGAIN

It doesn't make any sense - EXCEPT- it probably doesn't cost him anything, AND it keeps the Trump brand in the public eye AND it reassures his base that he is doing something (laff, laff, gag).
The money pot is being filled and that is what is important to him.

[Ms. Toad]

18. That's a start/

Now if we can convince them to reject all ads with verifiably false copy . . . there will be no political ads. Won't that be nice.

[BigmanPigman]

19. They basically gave him free ads for months BEFORE the elction!

This is a little late...what't the old phrase about locking the barn door after the horses (in this case asses) are already out?

[Alice11111]

27. Yes, billions of dollars in free ads...that is his talent...self

Promotion. That is exactly what he did yesterday by sending the buses to get the house members who just voted on his bill that 90pc admit they never even read. We know he sure didn't read it. All a big show to get some momentum behind his BS and Trumpcare.

[wryter2000]

20. So they'll let him get away with other lies

As long as he doesn't call them "fake news."

[oberliner]

21. This plays into their hands

And is exactly what they wanted to have happen when they released the ad.

[tenorly]

23. In a way it does, since it allows them to play the victim.

Then again, they always do anyway.

I'd say to CNN and the networks: go for it - and be sure to publicize any obscenities or death threats from Trump's paid trolls.

[Gothmog]

29. It was a very stupid and dishonest ad

[nikibatts]

31. We need to send them all encouragement to hold the line on Trump's lies.

[Ligyron]

32. So what happens to his PAC monies when after he's impeached?

Probably gets to keep it.

[Alice11111]

35. I think they can divert the funds to similar causes, but they

Can't keep them for themselves, unless it's another campaign. They can also return the money. I read that somewhere, but I can't swear to accuracy.

[TygrBright]

36. Not to worry. FAUX will run it 24/7/365. n/t

[CrispyQ]

37. So if the fake news gets cut they're okay with the rest of his lies?

[benld74]

40. Played in STL this past week!!

It's already played!!
Wife and I looked at each other, stopped the feed, re-wound watched 3 more times jaws on chests.
