Trump produced an ad talking about his accomplishments so far that the fake news isn't talking about. CNN decides not to play it because they don't like being called fake news.
Here's the response from CNN
Quote:
CNN requested that the advertiser remove the false graphic that says the mainstream media is ‘fake news.’ The mainstream media is not fake news, and therefore the ad is false. Per our policy, it will be accepted only if that graphic is deleted
Now CNN is selectively playing ads based on what they decide is true and what's not.
Reportedly, Trump campaign is spending $1.5 million to get the word out that Trump has done well in his first 100 days. CNN chose not to run the ad with the background graphic of various News Commentators overlaid with " fake news".
Wow. So you think that private companies should be forced to carry the presidents messages? What dictatorship our we living in?
It's a good point. Maybe Trump will bring back some version of the "fairness" doctrine where private media will be required to broadcast his propaganda. That would be "fair" wouldn't it?
Like it or not, the main stream media is not Trumps propaganda machine, nor should it be.
Not yet, anyway. Not until/unless the dictator wannabe shuts down all independent media in favor of a state-run only media, like his heroes Putin and Kim Jong-Un do. Trump would love that.

everyone does this and has done so for at least a couple of hundred years?
HOW, how is this news to you? No paper, no tv station, no radio , no town crier accepts adverts they dont like or they feel damages their brand or agenda etc.
did you really think FOX, Infowars, my yard sign is open to anyone to do whatever they want with?
NOPE, never has been never will. i am sure cavemen would say "NO we will not accept signs telling bears where we live".
You were also upset when Fox Sports blocked the Superbowl ad about the border wall, right?
If it wasn't on Rush Limbaugh, then the OP wouldn't know about it.
