President Trump's campaign organization launched a run of TV ads promoting the accomplishments of his first 100 days as president.
The 30-second video, titled "First 100 Days," lists his successes so far — including the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, authorization of the Keystone XL Pipeline and eliminated regulations — and then says the “fake news” media has hidden those accomplishments stating, "You wouldn't know that from watching the news."
CNN said today that is refusing to air the ad because the spot refers to the media as "fake news."
The Trump campaign fired back in a statement that called it censorship and said CNN “epitomizes” the meaning of “fake news.”
