Connecticut’s US Senate debate was brought to you by…. the combatant$

A quick check of the hard-to-navigate Federal Communications Commission website shows that the price of the 30 second spots during tonight’s mud-slinging exercise between Republican Linda McMahon and Democratic U.S. Rep. Chris Murphy on WTIC Fox 61 TV, was $3,100 per 30-second spot for Murphy and $4,000 for McMahon, presumably because hers was aired at the top of the first break.
