WASHINGTON--(Business Wire)-- Today, the Freedom`s Defense Fund (FDF) unveiled a Web site, direct mail and the first of what could be several television ads targeting Republican gubernatorial candidate Chris Christie. According to FDF, the ad centers around recently reported pay-to-play and no-bid contract controversies during Christie`s tenure as U.S. Attorney, despite his public pledges to end these corrupt practices, should he become New Jersey`s Governor. "As a leading advocacy group in the conservative movement, we have a responsibility to weigh in when choices are clear in Republican primaries," said Todd Zirkle, Chairman of the Freedom`s Defense Fund. "In New Jersey, we have an ethically challenged candidate versus a principled conservative in Steve Lonegan. It`s a no-brainer to get involved." Freedom`s Defense Fund ads will be airing on cable news networks across the state. Direct mail is designed to support the television campaign and a Web site has been created at www.christieexposed.com. "If we can expose New Jersey to the risks of Chris Christie and help be the conscience of the conservative movement, we`re happy to do it," said Zirkle. "If it benefits a tax-reforming, waste-gutting, family-supporting candidate like Steve Lonegan, so much the better." FDF is a political action committee (PAC). FDF is dedicated to the principles of limited government, as the Founders understood them. FDF stands with conservative, pro-freedom candidates against the radical left and their elitist allies in Washington. FDF was established in 2004 and has over 20,000 supporters nationwide.
