Robert De Niro will no longer be honored at the National Association of Broadcasters award ceremony following his anti-Trump rant outside the former president's criminal trial.
The Oscar-winning actor, 80, was set to be handed the group's Leadership Foundation's Service to America Award next week.
But the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) has rescinded the award after De Niro hit out at Donald Trump in a press conference in support of Joe Biden outside Manhattan Criminal Court on Tuesday.
'I owe this city a lot. And that's why it's so weird that Donald Trump is just across the street because he doesn't belong in my city,' he told reporters.
The NAB which describes itself as 'proudly bipartisan' said De Niro would no longer be attending their event. …
That likely wouldn’t have happened a few years ago.
Finally, they’re starting to feel a little bit of sting, maybe.
“'I owe this city a lot. And that's why it's so weird that Donald Trump is just across the street because he doesn't belong in my city,' he told reporters.”
When did he buy New York? He acts like he owns it.
Trump literally changed the skyline
Trump has been synonymous with NYC since the 1980s. He is as much a New York icon as the Statue of Liberty. Who does that phony movie actor think he is?
A zero.
Correct, a zero.
robert de zero
And I doubt that Hollywood whore actually spends much time there anyway.
Ooooo... that will show em.
Stoopid awards.
I’m surprised they even considered him at all.
