NBC said on Monday morning that it will no longer air an immigration ad from President Donald Trump, widely derided as racially divisive, that aired during the network's NFL coverage on Sunday night.
"After further review, we recognize the insensitive nature of the ad and have decided to cease airing it across our properties as soon as possible," said Joe Benarroch, a spokesperson for NBC's advertising sales department.
NBC came under fire for airing the commercial during its Sunday NFL coverage of a game between the New England Patriots and the Green Bay Packers.
The ad aired 18 times across multiple networks. It also aired on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Monday morning.
CNN had declined to air the commercial.

trump should retaliate by banning ALL Comcast/NBC reporters from ALL press conferences and such ...
Would these totalitarian minded types have considered it appropriate to deny an ad from the Queen of the Netherlands, protesting the unprovoked Nazi invasion--showing total disrespect for borders--in 1940? Or perhaps one from the King of Norway, protesting the Quisling betrayal of Norwegian sovereignty, later the same year?
These people, in the media, basically hate America & rooted Americans. They do not embrace Nazi tactics of forcing conformity out of compassion. They have all of the compassion of the Soviet & Nazi book burners, and slave labor camps, for those who do not accept the international adventures of the far Left!
I just talked to a friend of mine who had obamacare......until he didn’t. He lost it about 4 years ago when it went to $1600 a month with a 10k deductible.
The thing is...so many more people have jobs now and they get health insurance through their employers. It makes the democrat lies moot.
I predict that Big Media/Silicon Valley attacks on the First Amendment will be a MAJOR theme of Trump’s 2020 campaign.
Do we not have a right to hear what our President has to say on the subject?! Let's show these anti-American cracked pots, how much we appreciate their bigoted attempts to deny us even the liberty to speak out for the heritage they would destroy!
Our Last Chance? [Can Donald Trump Revive The "Spirit of '76?]
We cannot accept rule by American Quislings!
These things can backfire badly. Anyone else remember the media getting their panties knotted over the Ted Kennedy spoof VW add in National Lampoon? NatLamp got tons of free advertising out of it and increased circulation.
Not announced? At the end of the ad, it states in print that is from “Donald J. Trump for President”. How much more announcement is needed? Formal filing?
Clearly these networks (CNN and Fox News have pulled the ad too) are rolling the dice over the fact that any complaint filed by Trump’s campaign will take weeks at a minimum to process.
Their urgent goal is to get the truth off the airwaves NOW!
If they have to pay some fine at a future date as a consequence, oh well.
Because the MSM is really the DNC media..............
Thanks for the correction. I have no idea then, how NBC is getting away with this.
“I predict that Big Media/Silicon Valley attacks on the First Amendment will be a MAJOR theme of Trumps 2020 campaign.”
yeah, right now trump is just giving these assholes enough rope to hang themselves ... i think after 2020 we’ll see some major regulations of these leftist monopoly outfits pass Congress ...
bttt
Oh, I did not know Trump had formally filed, but then again, it might be that he would have to, to run ads saying DJT for Pres. ??
Thanks for the info.!
They will be told that..

Sickening isn’t it? Then when the republican replies. They ignore them.
How DARE the Republicans show actual pictures of the migrant hordes instead of hiring a racially diverse group of actors to portray them?
