Trump Urges Fox News to Censor Negative Ads

Former President Donald Trump has called on Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch to refrain from airing negative political ads about him in the lead-up to the election, claiming such ads could jeopardize his chances of returning to the White House. During a Fox & Friends interview, Trump expressed his frustrations over the network's programming, stating that in the past, negative ads were rarely broadcasted. He plans to meet with Murdoch to request a 21-day ban on negative commercials and to discuss the presence of what he describes as 'horrible people' spreading misinformation on the network. Trump has criticized Fox for including left-leaning commentators, claiming they provide biased coverage against him. This tension highlights Trump's ongoing complicated relationship with Fox News, where he frequently appears yet often voices discontent over its content. The former president is in a tight race against Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, who has significantly raised funds for her campaign, including attack ads.
