Overview

• Anti-abortion activist Randall Terry, a fringe presidential candidate, created the ad to leverage FCC regulations that mandate broadcasters air legally qualified candidates' ads.
• The ad aired during a commercial break on 'The View' and featured graphic images of fetuses, sparking viewer warnings from ABC.
• Terry's ad attacks high-profile personalities, including Whoopi Goldberg and Taylor Swift, equating them with Nazi propagandists for their support of abortion rights.
• The FCC regulations prohibit broadcasters from censoring political ads from qualified candidates, a rule Terry has exploited to disseminate his message.
• CNN has condemned the ad as 'outrageous, antisemitic, and dangerous,' while concerns grow over the manipulation of FCC rules to spread provocative rhetoric.
