Suffragette Movie Promotion and DNC Advertising Deals

The Democratic National Committee and CNBC are criticized for heavy cross-promotion of the film "Suffragette" during the debate.

They argue the film's marketing was strategically used to amp up female voters and link the historical struggle for the vote to Hillary Clinton's candidacy.
