KANYE West will likely not face any legal consequences for his Super Bowl ad, which promoted his Yeezy website selling $20 swastika shirts, a legal expert has claimed.
He told The U.S. Sun: "If Ye wanted to sell a product, and those who reviewed the ad saw uncontroversial athletic clothing on his site, there doesn't seem to be a specific reason to pull this particular ad, because it's reasonable to assume that his ad was going to be exactly what was initially presented on its face.
But within an hour, Kanye had removed all of the items on the site and replaced them with one; a white T-shirt with a black swastika emblazoned on the front, the symbol of the Nazi Party adopted by Adolf Hitler.
"If Ye tries to buy another Superbowl ad next year, however, networks will not be able to reasonably say they had no inkling that things could go sideways," Downlatshahi said.
But the situation does mean Kanye would likely be blocked from advertising Yeezy during the Super Bowl again.
