http://www.ask-steve.com/politics/page/2/ The broadcasting company official who benefited from two 1999 letters written by John McCain to the Federal Communications Commission disputes McCain’s recollection of discussions between the two men.
Lowell “Bud” Paxson, then chief of Paxson Communications, was seeking to buy a Pittsburgh TV station at the time. The Washington Post reports that Paxson recalls directly asking McCain for help in getting the FCC to make a decision on the purchase, and his lobbyist, Vicki Iseman, likely was with him. Paxson said he met with McCain in his Senate office.
McCain’s campaign released a statement this week denying that he met personally with Paxson or Iseman on the FCC matter.

A new piece in the Nation by public broadcasting activist Jerold M. Starr accuses Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) of lying about writing two controversial letters to the FCC in 1999 on behalf of campaign contributor Lowell “Bud” Paxson, regarding “Paxson’s quest to acquire a Pittsburgh television station.” Starr writes:
I don’t know whether Senator John McCain had sex with lobbyist Vickie Iseman, but I do know, first hand, that he broke the rules while doing the bidding of media mogul Lowell “Bud” Paxson, a major contributor to McCain’s 2000 presidential campaign. McCain’s staff lied it about it then and they are inventing new lies even now. <…>
At the time, McCain’s staff said to the press that his intervention was appropriate because “there was no formal opposition.” Our opposition had been formal for years. <…>
Allegedly, we asked McCain’s staff “to contact the FCC regarding this proceeding.” We had no idea of McCain’s sudden and urgent interest in our local matter until the FCC advised that the commissioners already had voted 3-2 to approve the transfer, at which time McCain’s letters were dropped on us.
