Brewer Quoted in Press Herald Article on Dispute Over Campaign Ads
Mark Brewer, a political science professor at the University of Maine, was quote in a Portland Press Herald article about the Maine Republican Party and the campaign of U.S. Rep. Mike Michaud, the Democratic candidate for governor, arguing over advertisements that both say contain false claims and want pulled from the air. “Campaigns still overwhelmingly drop their money into TV. That tells you that TV is still a dominant player in influencing voter choice and moving public opinion,” Brewer said.
