Some social media users, including country music fans, have called for a boycott of Country Music Television (CMT) after the channel pulled singer Jason Aldean’s “Try That in a Small Town.”
CMT aired the video for a few days before it removed it last week, sparking criticism that the channel was engaging in censorship. Some critics of Mr. Aldean’s song claimed that it used footage of a courthouse where a black teenager was allegedly lynched about 100 years ago.
