Something odd on Faux nextwork here in Texas....
For the first time, I have seen TWO Kerry commercials down here. This is far from a battle ground state, but it's just amazing that Faux is showing them and during major telecasts at prime time! On top of that, they have some new crappy show called "Nanny's" or something like that and the promo uses Kerry's tag line, "help is on the way". I hate faux as must as the next democrat, but this is amazing to me.

1. Are you watching AMW?
If so, did you see them giving Kerry free air time to talk about Iraq? WTF?

2. Potical Adertising Rules
If you offer advertising to one candidate you must allow opposing candidates the same air time and the same price.

6. Actually I think that was something different
In regards to political ads the nets must abide by the same rules and prices. They can't reject one political party ad if they agree to air ads from the other. I sell air time for a living and we deal with this every political season.

3. Texas isn't as republican as people make it out to be
If it were so republican, Delay wouldn't have had to fidget with the redistricting so much.

4. I know where I live NBC....
Has a 30 second TV spot with one of the candidates talking about an issue. I have seen Kerry and Bush spots with equal time...
