OK, now this is strange:
Quote:
UPDATE: The B.J. Lawson for Congress campaign replied to the unfolding controversy over the use of a likeness of Morgan Freeman in a campaign ad.
?We have a contract saying it?s Morgan Freeman,? Lawson campaign manager Martin Avila told POLITICO.
Avila said that the campaign was approached by a campaign supporter named Ben Mathis of MEI Political and Mathis Entertainment earlier this summer who offered to cut an ad with Morgan Freeman. The campaign declined the offer at the time, but was re-approached several days ago and agreed. They cut the ad with Mathis for $4.500.
Avila said that Mathis had an impressive portfolio of work, and other political spots featuring Hollywood celebrities.
?We?re pulling our ads, obviously, if Morgan Freeman says its not him? said Avila, adding ?This is obviously not what we want to talk about? with one day looming until the general election.
