: First Amendment CenterOhio officials toss campaign complaint against Fox News
By By The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio ? Ohio elections regulators have thrown out a complaint alleging that the Fox News Network illegally helped Republican Gov.-elect John Kasich raise campaign money.
The Democratic Governors Association had charged that Fox News let Kasich ask for donations during an August broadcast of "The O'Reilly Factor" and promoted the address of his campaign website. The group said the free publicity amounted to an improper in-kind campaign contribution from Fox.
The Ohio Elections Commission voted 5-0 yesterday to dismiss the complaint.
The Columbus Dispatch reported that an attorney for Fox News told the commission the network had a right to interview Kasich and said running the web address was a standard way to identify candidates.
The Democratic Governors Association did not appear at the hearing.
