The Trump campaign has apparently struck a nerve at CNN. The network rejected their ad that contained a graphic calling the media “fake news.”
The Trump campaign was quick to respond to the rejection.
“It is absolutely shameful to see the media blocking the positive message that President Trump is trying to share with the country. It’s clear that CNN is trying to silence our voice and censor our free speech because it doesn’t fit their narrative,” said Trump campaign executive director Michael Glassner.
CNN defended their decision in a tweet.
