In an unexpected turn of events, the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) has withdrawn the prestigious award initially meant for renowned actor Robert De Niro. The decision follows a public tirade by De Niro against former President Donald Trump. Standing outside the Manhattan courthouse amid Trump's trial related to hush-money allegations, on behalf of President Biden's campaign, De Niro lobbed accusations of Trump posing a 'threat to our democracy'.

The actor's provocative remarks included hypothetical scenarios of Trump resuming office and refusing to leave, becoming a 'dictator for life'. De Niro wholeheartedly supported the Biden campaign's aggressive anti-Trump approach, insisting on highlighting and reminding voters of what he considered the threat Trump posed.

The NAB, however, disagreed with this approach. The association had initially planned to present De Niro with their esteemed award the following week. However, his impassioned, politically charged discourse prompted them to reconsider.

An NAB representative commented on the situation, emphasizing the bipartisan nature of their event, recognizing the important work of local broadcasters and partners from all political leanings. The representative further affirmed their support for every American's right to exercise free speech, but observed that De Niro's public engagements had the potential for overshadowing the prime focus of the event—acknowledging philanthropic efforts.
