Fox News Sues Carnahan for Ad about Blunt

Fox News filed a lawsuit against Carnahan’s campaign in regards to an ad that uses footage from “Fox News Sunday”. The ad shows that Republican representative to the Senate, Roy Blunt, misused his power in his position as Congressman. 

   The video shows that Blunt abused his position to influence a Homeland Security bill for tobacco giant Philip Morris, while he was dating a lobbyist from the company. It also indicates that Blunt has strong ties with a convicted felon, lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Despite the lawsuit, Carnahan is not backing down because she is committed to her campaign to stop the bull in Washington.Read more.

   Roy Blunt is now bailing out on debates scheduled with Carnahan. They were supposed to have six debates, by a request from Blunt himself, just a month ago. Now they are down to two debates, neither of which will be broadcasted on television. The question is, Why is Blunt canceling debates with Carnahan? Does it have anything do to with the fact that Carnahan is gaining ground in the Senate race?
