When you're too racist for Fox News

Remember this?


I'm not providing a link.

It didn't end there, of course.

CNN responded:


But that's not all...
NBC, Fox News and Facebook have pulled a controversial Trump campaign advertisement that CNN had previously refused to run after deeming it “racist.”

NBC had aired the 30-second prime-time ad in the middle of a highly anticipated “Sunday Night Football” broadcast, but said on Monday that it would stop running it.

“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,” NBC Universal said in a statement.

The ad, paid for by Donald J. Trump for President, stirred fear of a migrant caravan making its way through Mexico that is still hundreds of miles from the United States border. It tied Luis Bracamontes, an undocumented Mexican immigrant who was convicted of murdering two Sacramento sheriff’s deputies in 2014, to the thousands of migrants who are fleeing Central America, even though Mr. Bracamontes is not known to be associated with the caravan.

“Dangerous illegal criminals like cop killer Luis Bracamontes don’t care about our laws,” the ad said.

And Sarah Sanders wants us to know that Trump isn't responsible for the Pittsburgh killer - the individuals who kill are responsible for their own acts.

At least these outlets pulled the ad, but kudos to CNN for refusing in the first place.
