DC: The Washington Post is facing stiff resistance from the paper’s union head for purchasing what some believe could be a $10 million Super Bowl ad extolling the virtues of journalism in a functioning democracy.
“The Post is now paying, say, $5M/30 seconds to tout journalistic freedom during one of the glitziest and — given the NFL’s knee-taking protests and concussions — more controversial sports events in our country,” Fredrick Kunkle, a staff reporter and co-chair of WaPo’s union, noted in a tweet Saturday.
The 60-second ad comes as hundreds of journalists are losing their jobs amid mass media layoffs. CBS is charging roughly $5 million for a 30-second ad during the Sunday’s game — so a 60-second ad would cost more than $10 million, according to some reports. MORE HERE

$10 million here and $10 million there and pretty soon you’re talking about real money!
Oh yeah…the ad was complete, ego feeding, self-aggrandizing bullshit!
Spend all the money you want liars, you will never buy back your honor or integrity!
Thanks tRuth for the heads up. That is a great ad! A definite “must see”.
We all know why the evil globalist refused to air it, don’t we?
Oh, and did you hear the massive boooooo’s when Goodell spoke during the presentation of the Lombardi trophy? Pinko commie f**k just like his old man!
The WaPo Jennifer Rubin is another not as eloquent yellow tooths KKK General in disguise hiding in plain sight on an msnbc warmonger chan in the Sky. Smell them now? Code Words.
Deep Deep Altered States.
Eleventy daze to go DC.
A newspaper spending $5 million on a TV ad to justify the existence of journos? Why doesn’t the WaPo just get hundreds of newspapers to print the same editorial? Oh, they tried that already…
