Head Scratcher: Daily Caller Hosts McAuliffe Ad?
The Daily Caller isn’t exactly the welcoming committee for the Democrats. So it was a little strange Wednesday that The Daily Caller would feature an ad from Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe against Republican Ken Cuccinelli within a story saying the White House and IRS exchanged confidential taxpayer info that ultimately landed on Drudge. And not just any Democratic candidate — the former head of the DNC and a major buddy of Bill Clinton. No doubt, it’s also weird McAuliffee would even think to advertise on the obviously right-leaning Daily Caller.
Kind of like advertising for kale juices during a football game, right?
Well, it turns out McAuliffe and The Daily Caller aren’t in bed together.
