Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Clinton Buys Entire Hour on Hallmark Channel for Feb. 4

WASHINGTON (AdAge.com) - The Clinton campaign is buying an hour on the Hallmark Channel on the eve of Feb. 5 Super Tuesday presidential primaries to air part of a 90-minute national town hall meeting.

Dubbed "Voices Across America," it will take place in New York and will air Feb. 4 at 9 p.m. Eastern Time. The extra 30 minutes will also be available on the internet and at 21 live events across the country.

There had been speculation that with more than 20 states in contention in the Super Tuesday vote, the economics of media buys would prompt candidates in both parties to buttress local media buys with an overlay of national ad spending.

The cost of the buy is unknown at this time.
