Phoenix demands Trump campaign pull ad with city police officers
Phoenix has sent Donald Trump's presidential campaign a cease-and-desist letter over a television advertisement that includes a snippet showing the Republican candidate talking with on-duty Phoenix police officers.
In the letter, City Attorney Brad Holm wrote that the Trump campaign violated federal and state law by using copyrighted material, including images of officers in uniform and at work, without permission.
Holm demanded that the campaign immediately remove the ad from airwaves and cease using it under any circumstances.
"The officers depicted in the ad were in uniform precisely because they were on duty performing work for Phoenix at the time," Holm wrote. "In this context, the ad unmistakably and wrongfully suggests that Phoenix and the officers support or endorse Mr. Trump’s campaign."
