Yester day on C-Span, host read article on Blunt

corruption and a group trying to run ads in Missouri about it. Blunt managed to get the ads stopped on MO stations (at least some). I do not know what paper the host read from and I can find nothing anywhere about this. Does anyone know anything about it?

1. Public Campaign Action Fund

The ad was produced by the Public Campaign Action Fund, and you can watch it on their new site, http://www.cleanupcongress.org . I didn't know about it being pulled from TV stations. The only article I could find is from the wingnut site NewsMax, but it confirms what you heard. Blunt complained, and four of seven stations quickly pulled the ad.

2. Thanks for your help - I wonder

what stations pulled it. There hasn't been a word in Joplin or Springfield papers about this and the morning they read it on C-Span, it was from a newspaper not from the "looney-tunes" sight. Thanks again.

Well, I'm glad to know they're not reading from NewsMax on C-SPAN!
