Crumley makes news ... literally

Our friends at AP report:

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) _ The Republican challenger to Attorney General Roy Cooper has started running television ads designed to point out what he calls problems fighting crime in North Carolina.

Asheboro lawyer Bob Crumley said the first of two 15-second ads started running Tuesday in all state television markets except for Greenville.

The ads direct viewers to a Web site, www.nccrimenews.com, where Crumley appears in what look like television news segments highlighting what he calls failures by Cooper.

The ads will run for about four weeks.

Crumley's law firm recently changed TV ads to remove his name and image after election officials said they could constitute illegal campaign contributions. Crumley said he's done nothing wrong and will fight the ruling after the election.

Here's the website in question.
