CNN bans Trump ad in 'fake news' uproar
WND ^ | 05/02/2017 | Bob Unruh

President's campaign reacts to 'censorship' by network!

It’s becoming clear that the 2020 presidential election campaign, already under way as evidenced by television ads, could very well be a war between the sitting president, Donald Trump, and the media, which he describes as “fake news” for its powerful ties to Democratic Party politics.

CNN, for example, refused to air an ad created by the Donald J. Trump for President organization because it has a frame of images of network anchors with the label “fake news” across their faces.

..

The ad boasts of the president’s accomplishments regarding business, energy independence, the Supreme Court, tax-cut plans and more.

..

The ad states: “Donald Trump. Sworn in as president 100 days ago, America has rarely seen such success.”

“CNN contended the graphic was “false” and said it would have to be removed before the ad could run.”

OMG this is hilarious. They purport to control the content of a Presidential ad simply because they don't like the opinion expressed?

They're going to get crushed for this, and now this ad will be seen by more people than it ever would have otherwise.

President Trump is playing 4D Spacetime Chess with the minds of the Democrats and Media (but I repeat myself)...

The President does not need the fake MSM or ads running on it.

Wish I thought they would get crushed for it. But I see what has happened at Fox. It is not liberals who are getting crushed.

yes, this is going to get endless millions of FREE social media views, as intended!

ofc CNN was in an difficult position, for never would they could they ever ever ever allow such a “FAKE NEWS” counter-punch against them to appear..... by rejecting it, though, they give it far more controversy and free publicity.

I think Fox won’t veer too far to the left, or they will lose their market.

They are the only one there at the moment. It is very good for them.

If they were the same place as all the other leftist networks, their market share would be the same as the other networks.

The thing is, there might actually be a conservative network which results from this.

That would be very good.

The media is mad because their agenda is failing, but also because no one has ever called them out before. They had carte blanche for decades. I love it!

Do not forget, my good FRiends, that is was none other than CNN and employee Donna Brazile who conspired with Hillary Clinton to CHEAT in a presidential debate.

Conspiring with a candidate to CHEAT in a presidential debate?

Beyond FAKE.

They are conspiring 24/7 to bring Trump down.

We laugh too hard at our own peril.

The hatred on the left is up there with any previous fascist group.

They want him destroyed. I’ve never seen anything like it.

It also proves the liberal censorship brought up at a White House press conference lately.
