CNN refuses to air Trump ad attacking Joe Biden with falsehoods, attaching several CNN anchors and Rachel Maddow with claims of FAKE NEWS!! Kudos to CNN and any other station that has the balls to say NO to the Dictator-in-Chief.

By purposefully submitting an ad that doesn't meet even the basic requirements of an organization that Trump loathes helps cement in the cult's mind the idea that the media, in particular CNN, are the enemy as it also appeals to the victimhood mentality of the far-right.

I would be happy if all political ads which do anything beyond profiling the candidate, their positions, experience and priorities were banned. Negative ads should not be allowed at all on any platform.

I agree-hate NEGATIVE ADS!

This is what we need. Real journalism should have an obligation to not peddle falsehoods no matter their source. This is how we got into this mess in the first place. Unfortunately, money seems to be a driving force that even overcomes decency and honesty. I say good for CNN and hope more viable news outlets follow. We can't beat Faux news by doing the same tactics it does.

I'm not sure this is the best way to fight back. We do still have free speech in this County, including those that tell lies like this ad does. I believe it would be better to run an add right after to counter the lies with the truth of what trump is doing to our Country.

"Free Speech" should NEVER be confused with the dissemination of lies & slander!

If ever it was time to take a stand, this is it!

Be worried. Be very worried.

When a news agency can choose which paid political ads its viewers will be allowed to see, it is just a small step to controlling other aspects of our lives through broadcasts (tv, radio, internet)

I will always be again all forms of mind control EVEN if it helps "the orange one"

Media companies have always implemented standards and policies for advertisers and have rejected ads that didn't meet such minimum requirements.

The fact that suddenly this single rejection is considered big news likely is the mind control that you are against.

@AlPastor there have to be some guidelines over what is put out there.....drawing the line at blatant lies would seem necessary in a true society!
