The Morning News — Ad Watch!

This morning from 8:30 to 9:00am I flipped through the morning shows on broadcast, clicking to Fox cable from time to time. I thought I’d make a list of what ads I saw in that time period. 

Bilbray for 50th Congress: 3
Fletcher for 75th Assembly: 1
McCann for 78th Assembly: 3
Block for 78th Assembly: 1
Goldsmith for City Attorney: 1
Proposition 7 Yes: 1
Proposition 7 No: 5
Proposition 4 Yes: 1
Proposition 4 No: 1 (a particularly nasty one)
Proposition 2 Yes: 2
Proposition 2 No: 1
Proposition 8 Yes: 3
Proposition 8 No: 1

I usually only watch TV early in the morning and late at night… but I think the ‘most ads’ award this year goes to No on Proposition 7 – particularly the one with the woman talking on the right half of the screen and the various endorsements and whatnot on the right side. I see that one in my sleep now.

    I disagree. I have seen few ads on 7. Most of the ads I have seen are on 8, and on the race between Jackson and Strickland. It may just be a difference on location.
