I keep hearing references to this MoveOn advertisement that left the Demos floundering and Reps highly irked, has anyone seen it? Something about General Betray-Us, play on Patraeus.
Um, no.This time of year..that is the rate that any advertiser would receive. The NY Times didn't give Move On any special rate.
http://www.nypost.com/seven/09132007/news/nationalnews/times_gives_lefties_a_hefty_di.htmAccording to Abbe Serphos, director of public relations for the Times, "the open rate for an ad of that size and type is $181,692."
A spokesman for MoveOn.org confirmed to The Post that the liberal activist group had paid only $65,000 for the ad - a reduction of more than $116,000 from the stated rate.
A Post reporter who called the Times advertising department yesterday without identifying himself was quoted a price of $167,000 for a full-page black-and-white ad on a Monday.
Indeed they did. AFTER he, and others, made a fuss about it.They gave Giuliani the same rate for an ad he ran recently.
