Comment on US agency ends 39% household cap on local TV station ownersparent

Seems totally legit!

Harris+Biden spent $770M on TV ads while Trump spent $350M.

How about 2016? Clinton spent $400M on TV ads while Trump spent $125M.

How'd that go for them? Really seeing those double digit improvements.

Different campaigns, you're comparing a presidential general election to a senate primary.

You're also ignoring superpacs in those presidential runs. You know how many NRA sponsored ads about "her emails" I saw in 2016?

TV is far less dead than often assumed.

Also ignoring how much other nation states spend on them.
