The Sunlight Foundation, always an excellent source for information much like the Pew Research Center, has an ongoing collaborative effort out there to monitor and document political campaign ads for the purposes of understanding how money moves in elections.

I’ve added the Sunlight Campaign Ad Monitor over there on the left under “Citizen’s Info”. Given the barrage of ads we have coming at us from all sorts of special organizations, ya’all might consider putting this link as a favorite on your browser.

In fact, if you don’t have a DVR, it would also be useful to keep a notebook handy to denote quick information on campaign ads (thinks like the time, channel and who paid for it).
