Newark, NJ — As the Trump campaign launches a multimillion-dollar TV ad nationwide and in the four early voting states attacking Joe Biden — which CNN is already refusing to air — Addisu Demissie, Cory Booker’s campaign manager, released the following statement:

“TV stations across the country, especially those reaching voters in the early states that will play a major role in selecting our nominee, should refuse to air these baseless ads meant to deceive voters. We all have a responsibility to do the right thing and prevent Trump from defaming an honorable man and public servant with straight-up lies. I should hope that stations in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina join CNN in refusing to air this garbage.”
