Rihanna slams Snapchat over ad that mocked domestic violence
A few days ago, Snapchat allowed an ad on its platform that plenty of folks thought made light of domestic violence. The ad was apparently for a game and it asked if viewers would rather "Slap Rihanna" or "Punch Chris Brown," likely referencing Brown's 2009 felony assault on the pop star.

Now Rihanna has seen the ad and responded on her Instagram Story, and Snap came back with another apology.
