NEW YORK — NBC says that “after further review,” it will stop airing President Donald Trump’s campaign advertisement that featured an immigrant accused of murder.
The advertisement aired on “Sunday Night Football” and on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Monday.
CNN rejected the same ad, declaring it racist. That drew a public rebuke from the president’s son, Donald J. Trump Jr.
NBC said Monday that in its further review, it recognizes the insensitive nature of the ad.
Watch the ad below:
CNN refused to run this ad… I guess they only run fake news and won’t talk about real threats that don’t suit their agenda. Enjoy. Remember this on Tuesday. #vote #voterepublican pic.twitter.com/VyMm7GhPLX
