Related: About this forumQuestion Media Peeps: How much does it COST to air a *TV Political Campaign Ad?
EACH TIME, on cable like CNN, national and local affiliates of the three major networks and any other televised outlets.
- Ad costs for 30 sec., 60 sec., 2 mins. if applicable. I'm curious what price the networks charge, thanks much.
Today I Saw this fine 30 sec. ad on MSNBC for Bernie's Campaign for the first time.

Sure. I know the networks charge a fortune each time an ad runs, why I asked.

Cuz I'd like to see one aired 10 times a day for Bernie!, esp. after these two losses and some more in the South to come.

also how popular the show is.
A 30 second spot during a cheers rerun wouldn't cost much.
Run that same add during the Superbowl and we are talking 10's of millions of dollars!
