“Did You Really Think No One Would Notice?”: CBS Faces Fire For Nixing NFL Star’s Trump-Inspired Celebration from Highlights

Woke, legacy media station CBS is under fire from online conservatives over its very controversial decision to remove footage of a post-touchdown celebration from a Las Vegas Raiders player that was seen as having been a nod to a now-famous dance coined by President-elect Donald Trump at his presidential rallies.

That player was Brock Bowers, tight end for the Las Vegas Raiders. Bowers, when he broke through a tackle attempt and scored a 23-yard touchdown in the third quarter of the Raiders game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, November 17, performed a celebratory dance in the end zone quite like the famous dance Trump does at his rallies.

The dance involves rhythmically moving one’s fists, raised vertically toward the head with elbows close to the waist. It has taken off in popularity since the president-elect’s victory in the presidential election on November 5, with young people taking to social media, particularly TikTok, to do the dance.

In any case, when Bowers did the dance move during the game, CBS aired it. The NFL, despite the semi-political nature of the dance, even included it in its posts, and the moment went viral online, with conservatives loving it and leftists, if they got the reference, hating it. But CBS, in its highlight reel, cut the dance out. That infuriated people online.

One such angry commenter said, “@CBSNews @NFLonCBS is complete trash!” Another account, Aesthetica, said, “Why did you edit out the Trump dance?” On the same note, another account said, “Cutting out the Trump dance celebration? Wow. This is why CBS is a joke.” On the same note, another commenter wrote, “Everybody needs to boycott cbs abc cnn msn . I have!”

Numerous others joined in on the same note. One wrote, “You’re a failed institution. You lied so much the people hate you.” Another such commenter called out the network for acting like no one would notice its cutting the Trump dance, saying, “Lol, did you really think nobody would notice? This network needs its broadcast license reviewed.”

Still another commenter wrote, “CBS. This is why he won. You’re part of the problem. Review your code of ethics.” Joining in, a comment on that comment added that people need to stop watching the lie-filled media, writing, “Stop watching that news mostly lies and biased opinions from people who have no idea what they’re talking about.”

Trump has sued CBS over its edited interview from before the election with Vice President Kamala Harris, in which an edited version of the interview made her look much better than the original, rambling answer she gave. Lawyers on behalf of the Republican presidential candidate claim that millions of viewers were “misled” by the doctored comments from Harris, disingenuously altering their view of the vice president. “Millions of Americans, including residents of Texas and this District, were confused and misled by the two doctored Interview versions,” Trump’s legal team said.
