Remember the PSA immigrant advocacy group America’s Voice created in an effort to educate CNN’s viewers about Lou Dobbs’ chronic bullshittery and anti-immigrant, anti-Latino rhetoric? Sure you do. You also remember how, in an effort to gain viewership and ratings appease the Latinos driven mad crazy by their flawed Latino in America series, CNN invited Basta Dobbs - another group dedicated to teaching Latinos about the reality and influence of Dobb’s message - founder Roberto Lovato onto Dobbs’ show. Lovato agreed, but only if the network president agreed to go on as well. 

 

Well that ad, which had initially been ok’d by CNN immediately before they pulled out of running it on the network, will now run on MSNBC at 9 pm tonight during Rachel Maddow’s show. 

Here it is again:

So. We suppose the ball is in CNN’s court. How are they going to respond to the increased pressure being placed on them by these groups?
