President Trump’s re-election campaign said CNN had blocked its latest campaign ad, accusing the network of censorship.

There is no reason for CNN to even acknowledge this president at all! The majority of Americans have no respect for Trump and can’t wait to vote him out of office! Don K. Carlon

CNN has become a total joke. No wonder more and more people are saying CNN is fake news. David Puddy

How idiotic. Trying to scream censorship because CNN decided not to run an ad that slanders not only them but the rest of their field as well. Matthew Farmer

Let me get this straight, the news media can slam the president every day, write negative articles on him and now they won’t run an advertisement of his slamming them back? Anyone thinks that’s fair? Is this what we call freedom of the press? A one-way dialogue? No wonder the United States is in trouble.

I hope that CNN reconsiders its thought process. If it doesn’t like Trump that’s one thing, but he has a right to respond, and in broadcast for millions to see. Ernie Ziroll

Networks regularly choose their sponsors. It’s no big deal. CNN probably doesn’t accept pornographic ads either, and Trump’s ad is nothing but political pornography. Ralph Towner

Good for CNN for standing against this lying traitor. It’s about time the news media begin to act as a gatekeeper for the real truth. Mike Jones

It would behoove the president to do less campaigning just eight months into a four-year term, and a lot more responsible governing. Robert Renouard
