Social media users slammed CBS News for seemingly advertising "No Kings Day" protest merchandise ahead of anti-Trump demonstrations, calling the move unethical amid controversies.

Despite the sweltering heat, hundreds — likely thousands — of people came out to express their disapproval of the Trump administration. And while protesters were loud and passionate, it did remain peaceful.

Ahead of "No Kings" protests, CBS News accused of dropping the "mask" with alleged promotion of merchandise and links for purchase.
