Letter of the Law
(Fox News) - A federal court today ruled that an advertisement for a political documentary about Hillary Clinton cannot be aired on television and radio — without the disclaimer required of political ads. The disclaimer says in effect that the film is not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee.
Conservative activist David Bossie is executive producer of "Hillary — The Movie" — which examines the senator's alleged role in several scandals. He tells FOX News the McCain-Feingold campaign finance law requires a four-and-a-half second disclaimer in his 10-second ads. He expects to appeal today's ruling.
The Hillary film is being screened at some movie theaters and is available for purchase. But Bossie says it's tough to get people to buy a ticket or a DVD if they don't know about the movie.
Says Bossie — "Michael Moore advertised his movie. I want to advertise my movie."
