McCain's Free Air Time

clipped from politicalwire.com

According to a group that monitors political advertising across the country, only one of the three Hillary Clinton-themed ads attacking Sen. Barack Obama has been broadcast so far --- and that ad, featuring a Clinton delegate who now endorses McCain is only airing in Toledo, Ohio, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The monitoring firm says they are "basically video press releases."
Why buy air time when cable news will run your ads for free? I've seen three of these ads aired on CNN today, as pundits talked about them. The irony of this is that, without the pundits discussing these things, no one would've seen them.

In fact, I saw Wolf Blitzer discussing this very free media story, during which he ran McCain's ad!

Liberal media my ass.
