The Donald Trump presidential campaign is facing criticism after its ads appeared on the video platform Rumble ahead of content from Stew Peters, an individual known for promoting anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and praising Adolf Hitler.
According to Rolling Stone, a Trump campaign ad was seen before a video featuring Peters, where he referred to Hitler as a “hero” and justified the actions of the Nazis, including mass book burnings in the 1930s.
Peters has a history of promoting anti-Semitic rhetoric and conspiracy theories, including claims about Jewish involvement in pornography and degeneracy. Despite these controversial views, Trump campaign ads were still being shown before segments from “The Stew Peters Show” on Rumble.
In response to inquiries about the ad placement, the Trump campaign stated that they do not specifically choose which videos or channels to run ads on, and they do not have visibility into every ad served on the platform. They placed responsibility on Rumble for the ads shown alongside content.
Rolling Stone confirmed the Trump campaign’s explanation by noting that keywords related to the ad’s URL appeared in the fundraising URL embedded in the ad itself.
Rumble has not yet responded to requests for comment regarding their policies on ad placement.
The incident highlights concerns about the spread of hateful content and misinformation on online platforms, as well as the responsibility of advertisers in ensuring their ads do not appear alongside harmful or inappropriate content.
