Santorum Gets His Low Rates, Afterall
It was reported in today's Hotline that KDKA-TV (Pittsburgh) had sent a letter to Sen. Rick Santorum's (R-PA) campaign informing them that "the law precludes us from offering you spots at the lowest unit charge for the remainder of the election campaign." That decision was apparently in reponse to the failure of the latest Santorum TV ad to include the "I approved this message" at the END of the spot, rather than the beginning, per FCC regulations applying to the last 60 days of a campaign. This could have had the result of seriously draining the Santorum campaign coffers for future ad buys. However Santorum consultant John Brabender now states: "Our lawyer was just informed the station changed their opinion and will now be giving us lowest unit rate." [QUINN MCCORD]
