The music video for country singer Jason Aldean’s controversial single Try That in a Small Town, which became a political lightning rod because of his threats against police protesters, has silently edited to remove footage of the Black Lives Matters protests.
The popular video – which has over 19 million views at the time of this writing, up from 350,000 when Country Music TV pulled it from its channel last week – is now six seconds shorter than when the video was originally posted on YouTube on July 14, as first reported. by the Washington Post.
The video still contains footage of protesters clashing with armed police, but no longer footage from Fox 5 Atlanta depicting violent clashes during Black Lives Matter protests across the country in the summer of 2020.
