Fox News OK's Ad From Media Matters
Reported by Ellen - September 2, 2010 -
Last week, we posted about - and voiced our support for - Media Matters' fundraising campaign to place an ad on Fox News reporting what the "fair and balanced" network has mostly ignored: Its parent company's donation of $1 million to the Republican Governors Association. After some negotation, Fox News has agreed to run the ad.

After three rounds of changes, Fox News has agreed to run a Media Matters for America ad pointing out the cable network’s parent company’s $1 million donation to the Republican Governors Association.“If Media Matters can come up with the money, we’ll take the ad,” a Fox News spokesperson told POLITICO.
