Liberal actor Robert De Niro will no longer receive a coveted National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) award after he unleashed an anti-Trump tirade outside the 45th president’s Manhattan trial this week. ...

"This event is proudly bipartisan, uniting those from across the political spectrum to celebrate the impactful work of local broadcasters and our partners," an NAB spokesperson told The Hill.

"While we strongly support the right of every American to exercise free speech and participate in civic engagement, it is clear that Mr. De Niro’s recent high-profile activities will create a distraction from the philanthropic work that we were hoping to recognize," the spokesperson continued. "To maintain the focus on service of the award winners, Mr. De Niro will no longer be attending the event."
