Kurtz: Town hall meeting was ‘Fox infomercial for John McCain’

By David Edwards and Nick Langewis

“I think Americans are tired,” Senator John McCain said at a Thursday town hall meeting. “They’re tired of the spin rooms, they’re tired of the soundbites, they’re tired of taking people’s comments out of context.”

The meeting’s audience was comprised entirely of Senator McCain’s supporters, and the broadcasting rights were granted exclusively to Fox News, who also relinquished editorial control of the broadcast.

“That was like a Fox infomercial for McCain,” said CNN’s Howard Kurtz. “Don’t you usually have to buy TV time to get that exposure?”

“It was a sweetheart deal for the McCain campaign,” said TIME Magazine’s Karen Tumulty. “There’s just no way around it.”...........
