Bill Winter for CD6: NRC CEO backpedals
An update on my posts from yesterday in today's Rocky Mountain News:
Tim Brown, chief operating officer for NRC Broadcasting, said he does not consider the ad titled "Dateline: South Carolina" offensive, and it continues to run on the air...
But Berrick Abramson, Winter's campaign manager, said he was called by a station representative early Wednesday and told the ads had to be pulled.
An e-mail message forwarded to the Rocky Mountain News by Abramson seems to confirm that.
"Management has given me no choice but to pull this spot. As I said, we will be happy to run your other spots, but we cannot run the South Carolina spot," the e-mail, apparently from NRC's Neil Conway, said.
Kudos to the Rocky for exposing NRC's lie. But beating the media's pro-Tancredo bias is not enough. We have to beat Tancredo. You know what you have to do.
Want more? Square State and Migra Matters are also following this story.
