Can’t get enough of the political wars among Democrats and Republicans over who should be their presidential nominees? Sad that New Yorkers can’t see dozens of attack ads being broadcast in Iowa and New Hampshire?
Thanks to a nonpartisan nonprofit venture launched Friday, you can have a front row seat to all the ads — and links to sites that fact-check them and reveal who’s paying for them.
The website politicaladarchive.org is hosted by the San Francisco-based Internet Archive. The site picks up most presidential campaign ads aired in eight top swing states — Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio and Florida. It’s made for binge watching.
