Note from Rep. Gara: Corporate-Funded Ads Paint Skewed Picture: Tuesday Ballot Measures
August 24, 2012
So far Exxon, British Petroleum, Shell and ConocoPhillips have spent over a half million dollars with deceptive ads telling you how their companies want you to vote Tuesday. That’s the new election world we live in. In this world of unlimited election spending, facts should matter more than spin, and when corporations fund ads you should take a close look to see if they are trying to spin you into voting against the public’s interest. I believe they are here. What’s good for outside corporations isn’t always what’s good for you.
