Grading the Ad Graders
Pat Kessler (WCCO), Tom Hauser (KSTP), and others do "fact checking" of political ads, giving out grades. I find they're being more than generous, and I've yet to see a failing grade. And what are consequences? Much less than in real life, especially for Democrats.
Grade Terrorist Republican Boss Spouse Democrat
A Spared Pollyanna (expected) (love!) Positive
B Beheaded Misleading Verbal The Look Forceful
C Beheaded Deceptive Warning Counseling Tsk tsk
D Beheaded Swiftboating Fired Separation Misspoken
F Beheaded Creepy Liar! Sued Divorce Troubling
