MSV responds to controversial campaign ad

15 October 2009

Recently, Del. Joseph Bouchard of the 83rd district is running a television campaign spot that has attracted much attention in the Tidewater area. The ad, which MSV finds very troubling makes incorrect statements about Dr. Chris Stolle's medical service to the community. MSV issued a letter yesterday to the Bouchard campaign stating our concerns with the ad and requesting that it be removed from broadcast. Virginia Hospital and Healthcare Association (VHHA) has issued a similar letter as the ad makes assertions about an area hospital's quality record.
