What is the Constitutionality of a Newspaper Bailout? That was the question recently posed by Jeff Bercovici of Conde Nast’s Portfolio.com. This issue has come to the fore because various members of Congress are currently considering such an action. Without even commenting as to any possible First Amendment breach by virtue of news organizations being [...]

What in the hell? MSNBC is advertising about its coverage of Inauguration Day, saying: In the nation’s capitol, on the brink of history, the hour approaches … If January 20th marks the “brink of history,” what have we been living in so far? And won’t the Visigoths, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, and Mesopotamians be just a [...]

Jonathan Martin of Politico reports that the Pennsylvania GOP is running the following ad in the Key Stone state. Martin writes: McCain has refused to invoke Wright or allow his campaign to use the pastor in ads. A senior campaign aide said they knew nothing about the Pennsylvania party’s ad in advance. Officials with the [...]

I’ve always been a fan of British humor and the October 31st Times Online review of Obama’s infomercial, written by Chris Ayers is a perfect example of that dry British wit. The title and subtitle set it up perfectly:

DONATION CLARIFICATION–Folks, we have had an influx of donations to NoQuarter today. It is much appreciated but I finally started asking some of the contributors and they want the money to go to GOPTrust. Because I am incorporated, I cannot forward the money to GOPTrust, because they do not accept corporate money. You need to [...]

The day after THE ONE tries to bypass media (sorta) and go “directly to the people,” and there is surprisingly little written yet. It’s an interesting situation. An infomercial buy like this one is nearly unprecedented (except for Ross Perot, but he had cool charts), so it’s hard to decide if it was a good [...]

Here are my notes from the McCain/Palin conference call that ended moments ago. Rick Davis, McCain’s Campaign Manager, said the following: Watch for an unprecedented velocity of McCain TV ads this final week Obama was spending $40 million a week during housing crisis, he’s now to normal levels They will be spending $10 million more [...]

Tonight Senator Obama starred in his own prime time special, about Senator Obama. Is it me or is Obama passé? I find his voice — artificially deep to project gravitas — to be just as grating as George W. Bush’s faux-Texas accent. Obama the brand is wearing thin. He has his own hand sign, his [...]

Created by the conservative group “Let Freedom Ring,” this one-minute ad just aired during prime time in the swing state where I live. I think it’s very effective.

In the latest round of economic obscenities from Barack Obama, his campaign is reported to be spending a record $230 million on television advertising, including Wednesday prime-time commercials on CBS, NBC and Fox. The three 30-minute ads or infomercials cost Obama nearly $1 million each. This is the first time mark the first time in [...]

The disaster of the Bush Administration and the tarnished legacy of the Republican Congress would normally spell doom for the Republicans in the November election. But then you learn that the Democratic Congress is held in lower esteem than even the Bush Administration. I agree that the trend lines for McCain do not look good, [...]
