During his speech outside Manhattan Criminal Court, De Niro criticized Trump, calling him a “clown,” a “dictator,” and a “monster.” He also engaged in heated exchanges with Trump supporters, labeling them “gangsters.”
Controversy and Consequences
As a result, the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) rescinded their offer to award De Niro the Leadership Foundation’s Service to America Award, which he was scheduled to receive on Tuesday.
A spokesperson for the NAB stated that the event aims to unite people across the political spectrum to celebrate the work of local broadcasters and their partners, and De Niro’s recent activities would distract from this focus.
