Rihanna, of course, is referring to the release of a video showing former Baltimore Ravens star Rice brutally punching his wife Janay Palmer, which led to the termination of his team contract and an indefinite suspension from the NFL.
Per Sports Illustrated, CBS also pulled Rihanna and Jay Z's hit song "Run This Town," which was scheduled to play before last Thursday night's kickoff, in the wake of the Rice video release.
CBS you pulled my song last week, now you wanna slide it back in this Thursday? NO, Fuck you! Y'all are sad for penalizing me for this.
