Fox Orders Halt to McCain Ad
Fox News Channel confirms that it has ordered the campaign of Senator John McCain to cancel its new ad featuring a clip of him at last Sunday’s debate, which was sponsored by Fox News. The news network prohibits candidates from using debate clips in their political advertisements.
The spot uses a debate clip liberally, highlighting Mr. McCain’s dig at Senator Hillary Clinton for pushing a $1 million earmark for a museum commemorating Woodstock and his quip that he was “tied up” during the concert – that is, tied in up North Vietnam as a prisoner of war.
