Capitol View

Political ad database

Posted at 3:42 PM on October 23, 2006 by Bob Collins

I don't know if the Washington Post is trying to out-YouTube YouTube, but they've set up a "political ad databse," with access to, well, political ads, oddly enough.

It's a nice start, but there's only 6 ads in the Minnesota listings and with Google acquiring YouTube, it's hard to image the WashPo being a significant player in this arena.

But... maybe.
