Study Shows Business Outspends Nonprofits 5-1 on Issue Ads
The Annenberg Public Policy Center has published new research examining legislative issue ads, focusing on the Washington, DC, area during the 108th Congress. They found 'Corporate interests outspent citizen/cause interests by more than five to one,' and that advertising on many issues was one-sided. Not surprisingly, the side that spent more was more likely to have a favorable outcome. "
