President Obama’s campaign has begun buying advertising time in a
handful of key battleground states — in Michigan, Virginia, Ohio and North Carolina — making his first purchase of
television time so far this election, the New York Times reports.
“So far the purchase appears quite limited, according to someone who monitors political advertising. The ads were placed for one day only, Thursday. And the number of states where they will run could expand.”
