Garvey Schubert Barer and TVNewsCheck Release Free Political Advertising Handbook for Television Industry Handbook educates advertising sales representatives on how to work with campaigns without running afoul of complex regulations regarding political ads
WASHINGTON, DC (February 16, 2016) Law firm Garvey Schubert Barer and TVNewsCheck have released a free handbook for TV broadcasters on the legal aspects of political advertisements. The publication, 'Political Advertising: A Guide for the TV Sales Executive' provides an overview of the essential concepts of political advertising and key regulations affecting legal compliance, and can be viewed online here.
The guidebook has been drafted by attorneys with deep experience in broadcasting, political campaigns and the Federal Elections Commission. Erwin Krasnow, a partner at Garvey Schubert Barer is former general counsel of the National Association of Broadcasters. Brad Deutsch, a partner at Garvey Schubert Barer, is a former chief of staff to FEC Commissioner Steven T. Walther and is currently legal counsel to the Bernie Sanders presidential campaign. John King, of the law offices of John W. King, is former editor of the Federal Communications Bar Journal.

Additional uncertainties come to mind when reading about the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Information below from the FCC website gives sway to other questions about why there had not been more push-back from Deutsch's office taking into account the qualifications and experience of his two partners with whom Deutsch wrote the free political advertising handbook for the television industry. Is it that a lawsuit against these corporate titans would be too costly and Sanders' campaign could not afford to fund it? Or again, the recurring question, did Deutsch like Devine and so many others that operate and thrive in the upper echelons of society underestimate the Sanders' campaign and not want to bite the hand that feeds them so well?
Why not ask if Sanders' supporters would be willing to have a portion of their donations be directed to legally fight the current travesty of justice protecting the elite. Without fighting and outing the inherent dishonesty and theft of this election, funding the campaign will be an ongoing source of frustration and good money, energy and human resources down the drain.
