Philadelphia Eagles Removing ‘Counterfeit’ Kamala Harris Ads Across City

The Epoch Times Header

The NFL team said it is ‘working with our advertising partner to have them removed.’

The Philadelphia Eagles on Monday confirmed they would work to remove unauthorized posters that appear to show the Eagles endorsing Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris at Philadelphia bus stops.

On social media platform X, users uploaded images of the posters and questioned whether the NFL team had endorsed the vice president for the November election. The cartoon-like pictures showed Harris in an Eagles uniform and helmet, carrying a football, describing her as the “official candidate” of the team.

In a statement on social media Monday, the Eagles said they are aware that “counterfeit political ads are being circulated,” and the team is “working with our advertising partner to have them removed.”

Local Philadelphia media outlets reported that the posters were set up at bus stops in 16th and Spring Garden streets, 34th and Walnut streets, and 18th Street and JFK Boulevard. A website at the bottom of the posters offers voting information for residents of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Eagles Nation, a fan site that is associated with with the team, also noted on X that the Eagles have “not made any sort of official announcement, and their Voting Resource website listed on it hasn’t been updated since the primary elections.”

A representative from Intersection Media, a company that owns the ad space, told The Epoch Times on Tuesday that the company is aware its bus shelters in Philadelphia “have been vandalized and that the paid advertising copy in each of those shelters has been replaced with unauthorized copy,” responding to a question about the fake Eagles ads with Harris.

“While our bus shelters have locks that typically prevent the installation of unauthorized copy by non-Intersection staff, occasionally people find a way to unlock the ad box and insert unauthorized copy,” the company said.

The firm also confirmed that the unauthorized advertisement included an implied “endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris by the Philadelphia Eagles,” adding that the Eagles and Intersection both “had nothing to do with the creation or posting of this unauthorized copy and Intersection staff will be removing the ads as soon as possible.”
