"After further review we recognize the insensitive nature of the ad and have decided to cease airing it across our properties as soon as possible," a spokesperson for NBC said in a statement.

"Upon further review, Fox News pulled the ad yesterday and it will not appear on either Fox News Channel or Fox Business Network," Marianne Gambelli, Fox News' president of advertisement sales, told CNN in a statement.

The advertisement aims to motivate Republican turnout by vilifying a group of migrants walking toward the US southern border, wrongly portraying them as invaders and criminals.

Many viewers were stunned when it aired during "Sunday Night Football," which is one of the most watched programs on television, regularly averaging more than 10 million viewers.

This week's game likely had a particularly big audience as it featured a highly-anticipated matchup between two of the league's premier quarterbacks, Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.

They already invaded Mexico by ripping down gates and barriers, and they plan to come here breaking our immigration laws.

So what is inaccurate about calling them invaders and criminals?

That's exactly what they are.

What's funny is if they voted Republican, liberals would never want them here.

It's all about future votes for democrats. Plain and simple.

Protecting our border is not racist.
Yet, the people upset and calling it racist are........wait for it.......racist. They see the brown skin and say Trump is racist for keeping them out.
Our country deserves everything we are getting. People are so stupid.

Football ads are becoming increasingly faggy. What happened to the ads with hot bangable chicks in hot tubs selling us beer or big arse trucks plowing through the wilderness? Now it is screaming children selling us pizza and Latinos setting up lemonade stands. Can’t we pull any of those commercials?

But they're okay with running misleading ads for the New York Times that imply Trump has broken tax laws?

The left has made the word useless. No one really gives a shite anymore.

When your strength is crying, whining, accusing people of being racist, homophobic, and having to claim every election is "illegitimate" then your party is headed to the graveyard.
