KSTP-TV won't air a Progress for America ad because it claims "the media only reports the bad news" and "you would never know it from the news reports, but the enemy in Iraq is al Qaeda." A Minnesota political ad guru says: "I think it's very interesting that a station would say, 'We have enough faith in our news product and our reporting to say that ad is demonstrably wrong and we're not going to air something slanders our station.'" ||
Jane Kirtley: It's highly unusual for a station to reject an ad on journalistic grounds.
