There was a near-universal “ick” on Twitter today when Herman Cain released his latest video depicting a bunny shot like a skeet to make a point about taxes. The web video followed Cain’s last ad, which controversially featured a goldfish gasping for breath after being dumped on the ground.
Within a few hours of the bunny video hitting the net, YouTube pulled it down.
“This video has been removed as a violation of YouTube’s policy against spam, scams, and commercially deceptive content,” reads a message from the site. Vistors hoping to catch the extremely graphic clip now see this.
We’ve reached out to the Cain organization; we’ll update this post when we hear something.
UPDATE: The video is now back online.
