My office just got off the phone with Erin Kelly, head of political ad sales at the Fox News Channel. She told us our ad “French Romney” was rejected because everything Fox airs “has to be truthful.”
No, I’m not making this up. 60 seconds after the call ended, Erin called back to clarify. She says our ad was rejected because it was “misleading.”
Really.
Because if it’s one thing we can all agree with, there would never be anything on the airwaves at Fox that a fair-minded person could construe as misleading.<!–more–>
To borrow a phrase from Fox, “We report, you decide” Here is the ad in question below.
