Reporter Using Google Ad to Find Source on Katherine Harris’s Staff
July 31st, 2006
Wow, I can’t say I’ve ever heard of this one before — a reporter for the St. Petersburg Times is looking for an internal campaign source by running a Google ad tied to searches for the name “Katherine Harris” (i.e., the former Florida elections official, current congressmember and senatorial candidate). We must presume that she thinks that Harris’s campaign staff members are so disgruntled that she can catch one of them through an online ad. Ouch, that one’s gotta hurt! Thanks to Salon for the initial hit.
