WASHINGTON, DC – NAB is running print advertisements this week in several Capitol Hill publications, including Congress Daily, The Politico and Roll Call.
"If it walks like a duck, and swims like a duck and quacks like a duck… well, you know," the ad reads. "By levying a new fee on radio stations… Congress would be taxing the stations in their backyards to line the pockets of international record label executives."
NAB will also be delivering a stuffed toy duck to each Congressional office on Tuesday with a message that reads "No Performance Tax on Local Radio," along with a copy of the advertisement.
