Update: I have gotten rates from the Iowa Newspaper Association. The chip-in goal reflects the cost of running the ad as a 1/4 page full color display ad on Sunday in the Daily Nonpareil. Dusman has been messaged again about the ad modification. The Iowa Falls Times-Citizen was removed because their circulation was much lower than originally thought (only 3,780) so the next highest newspaper was added, The Daily Nonpareil.
Update: Will call Times Citizen and Sioux City Journal tomorrow. Contacted Iowa Newspaper Association tonight to see what their prices are like (could be cheaper than dealing directly), will hear back tomorrow. We have a thousand dollar donor! Dusman will send the modified ad to me tomorrow.
RPF,
After running three highly successful Iowa newspaper ad campaigns (#1 #2 #3) featuring dusman's "Oath" ad and pauliticalfan's "Shock" ad, we would like to do a final ad campaign before the Iowa caucus on January 3rd. This ad campaign will be the most ambitious yet. It will reach hundreds of thousands of Iowans and address the sole issue holding us back from 1st place. What we are proposing is running the professional and attractive "Oath" ad in as many Iowa newspapers as possible as close to the caucus as possible. The highest circulated newspapers will be targeted first. The first target is the Des Moines Register, the mother of all newspapers in Iowa with a Sunday circulation of 212,162. The ad (modification will remove Cain and insert Gingrich) will be run as either a 1/2 page or 1/4 page full color display ad depending on how much we raise. We will deal with the Iowa Newspaper Association to get the lowest rates possible. Paypal charges 2.9% on the total sale which will be reflected in the chip-in goal. We have no time to waste, the longer it takes to raise the funds the more deadlines we will miss!
Top 10 Targets:
1. Des Moines Register - Des Moines
2. Cedar Rapids Gazette - Cedar Rapids
3. Quad-City Times - Davenport
4. Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier - Waterloo
5. Sioux City Journal - Sioux City
6. Dubuque Telegraph Herald - Dubuque
7. The Hawk Eye - Burlington
8. Mason City Globe Gazette - Mason City
9. Fort Dodge Messenger - Fort Dodge
10. The Daily Nonpareil - Council Bluffs
(University, agricultural, shopping, religious, and regional duplicates were excluded. Iowa Farmer Today was previously targeted by an ad campaign and Carroll Today ceased publishing in 2006.)

This is what the ad looks like in print.
