THE NASTY AD CAMPAIGN OF THE FREE NATIONAL MOVEMENT

The Free National Movement and Hubert Minnis have been running a set of nasty ads about the Leader of the PLP Philip Brave Davis since 2 July 2021. The ads were clearly defamatory and certainly in violation of the standards of broadcasting. Owen Wells, Attorney at McKinney and Turner & Co  wrote on behalf of the Leader of the Opposition to URCA, the regulatory authority and demanded action. Wonder of wonders, they acted and gave an interim order to take the ads down.  They said in their order that immediate action was required because not to do so would cause irreparable harm to Mr. Davis.  The FNM ought to apologize for running the ad and they ought to be made to pay compensation to Mr. Davis and so does Cable Bahamas for injury to his reputation.
