Marketwatch: #BoycottABC trending after the network aired an ad showing AOC’s photo on fire during the Democratic debate
Viewers are threatening to boycott ABC after the network aired a political advertisement that featured a burning photo of New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez during Thursday night’s Democratic debate.
While Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and others want to know how this inflammatory ad made it on the air, neither ABC or Sinclair are responding.
GOP’s message: No policy, no facts, just displays of violence + corporations like @ABCNetwork & Sinclair who amplify them.
They profit from burning my likeness on TV. But who pays for heightened security? Who answers the phones for the threats resulting from a violent, false ad? https://t.co/Gr1XhEbwDC
