@ms.now may I ask why this station is showing pro ICE ads now? I've seen 2 already this morning. The Melania movie ads were bad enough, & the My Pillow ads back in 2021? 22? were also pretty distasteful but pro ICE ads? Especially right now? I watch this station so much the emblem is ingrained into

@msnowcomms.bsky.social ok, it was bad enough that you guys were advertising the Melania movie during every other commercial break but you guys are running pro ICE commercials now?! This is one of the last stations boldly speaking the truth. But to then show a pro ICE ad? That's messed up!

Starting as early as January, U.S. tariff rates on imported pasta from 13 major Italian companies could soar to as high as 107% under a preliminary U.S. Commerce Department decision.
Italian pasta exports to the U.S. could be 'virtually wiped out' by proposed 107% tariffs
The U.S. has hit 13 Italian pasta exporters with an anti-dumping tariff of 92%, which would be added to the Trump administration's 15% blanket E.U. levies.
