WoW Trump Effect – CNBC Charging $250,000 Per 30 Second GOP Debate Commercial…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 10/3/15 | Sundance

NEW YORK – CNBC is asking advertisers to pay a cool $250,000 to get their 30-second spot on the third Republican presidential debate, The Post has learned.

The debate, headlined “Your Money, Your Vote: The Republican Presidential Debate,” is set to take place on Oct. 28 and will air on the business news cable network.

CNBC’s asking price is 25 percent higher than the $200,000 per 30-second spot that CNN fetched during the second debate — and significantly more than the typical $50,000 that CNBC charges for its sometimes schlocky commercials for personal grooming products or gold buying services.

The CNN debate on Sept. 17 drew 23.1 million viewers, making it the most watched program in its history. The first Republican debate on Fox on Aug. 6 attracted 24 million viewers.

I wonder what they will charge for the Democratic debates - if there are any.

They probably make the advertisers donate to Hillary’s campaign.

Trump should have stuck to his guns about making them donate part of it to charity.

Any idea how many 30 sec. ads are likely to run during the debate? I’m figuring you probably get 2 minutes per commercial break times maybe 4 breaks per hour?

Even Trump might not be able to draw viewers with that group.

They chose them so they can use their dismal ratings as proof Trump is slipping...You saw it here first.

Just remember folks:

Trump has topped out.

Trump is slipping in the polls.

Trump will never make the primaries.

Trump can’t win the primaries.

Trump can’t win the nomination.

Trump can’t win against the Democrat candidate.

Trump’s negatives are higher than all the other candidates who draw only 1/10th as many people as he does.

all this nonsense of I raised 15 million and you raised 23 million is total nonsense...if the network charges 25,000 for a 1 minute commercial during the week, say for AFLAC or GEIKO, then offer the same to carry your message....they should not be allowed to rip you off just because there is a political campaign going on......They sell a product, it is worth X number of dollars per hour, whether they sell aspirins or politicians should make no difference whatsoever......it the politicians got together and told them so.....there would be no problem...
