Hillary Clinton
Note

This Trump campaign ad criticizing Clinton for lying about her emails, allowing ISIS and terrorism to spread, and for calling Americans "deplorables." "False," reports PolitiFact. FBI Director James Comey has said there is no "basis to conclude she lied to the FBI." The roots of ISIS stretch back before 2004, when Clinton became secretary of state. Clinton did not call all Americans deplorable but rather criticized some Trump supporters for being "sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic."

About the Dataset

The Political TV Ad Archive, powered by the Internet Archive, is pulling together resources from a variety of sources to create an archive of political TV ads in key primary states. Each ad has its own canonical web page (sample here), and associated downloadable metadata. Some metadata are added by the Internet Archive; some generated via the media itself (such as count of ads, how many times an ad has aired, etc.); and some come from our partners.

10 most aired political ads, fact-checked

This ad from Trump’s campaign replays a clip of Clinton asking, "Why aren’t I 50 points ahead?" (The comment came during a video conference with the Laborers’ International Union of North America.)

An announcer then answers, "Maybe it’s because the director of the FBI said you lied about your emails. Or maybe it’s because your policies have allowed ISIS and terrorism to spread or maybe it’s because you called Americans ‘deplorables.’ "

These attacks on Clinton are exaggerated.

False.
