Moveon.org To Pay Full Rate For Controversial NYT Ad

Editor & Publisher:

Clark Hoyt, public editor of The New York Times, took issue Sunday with the paper's recent decision to run a discounted ad from Moveon.org criticizing Gen. David Petraeus.

In his regular column, Hoyt claimed "the ad violated The Times's own written standards, and the paper now says that the advertiser got a price break it was not entitled to."

The ad, which ran on Sept. 10, used the headline "Gen. Petraeus or Gen. Betray Us." It was published at a discounted rate, sparking some to claim the paper had given preferential treatment to the liberal organization.

After MoveOn's ad was published, Rudy Giuliani bitched about the "discount" they allegedly received. He then demanded that he get the same rate for an ad of his own.

So now that MoveOn paid the full rate, will Rudy do the same for his ad?

Pay Up Rudy!

The Republican party should have to pay the full ad rate for David Brooks's column.

Not to mention Thomas Freidman's ads for globalist raping of our country.

NYT said they don't accept personal attack ads...so why then did they accept an ad from Bucky Beaver Guiliani which incorrectly attacked Hillary??? Bucky & his puppy killer bride, Judy, lied & claimed that Hillary was behind the Petraeus ad.
