BUSTED: Will Media Ignore Coke Censoring ‘President Trump’ But Greenlighting ‘President Harris’?

Here’s a story the liberal media won’t cover: Leftist soda giant Coca-Cola seems to have made it clear where its political loyalties lie for the 2024 election, and it may have violated federal election law in the process.
When MRC researchers attempted to customize a “Personalized 12 fl oz. Can of Coca-Cola” on the company’s website at 2:04 p.m. on Sept. 25, the phrase “President Harris” was permitted as an acceptable prompt for a can. However, when MRC researchers entered “President Trump,” the company auto-denied the request and left an eye-opening message: “Looks like the name you requested is not approved. Names and phrases may not be approved if they are trademarked, political in nature, names of countries, celebrities, religious figures, as well as anything that could be considered offensive for other reasons.” Apparently “President Harris” didn’t fall into any of these categories.
Is that right, Coca-Cola? Is “President Harris” not considered “political in nature” by the Coca-Cola website algorithm as opposed to “President Trump,” or is Coke just preventing Trump because he’s a celebrity and a politician, which would be convenient if the company was trying to give one campaign a boost before the November elections?
