Comedy Central to Show Political Ads
The CC Insider is reporting that The Huffington Post reports that Comedy Central is reporting it will broadcast political ads during the campaign season for the first time in the channel's history.The first political ad, shown on both The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, was paid for by the group MoveOn.org, which seems to be some sort of trucking industry lobby.

Ralph Nader, Independent
History ChannelBob Barr, Libertarian Party
