Wrap:  After Carnahan aired a campaign ad of a Fox interview with Republican Roy Blunt, Fox sues for copyright infringement.

With Carnahan's recent plea to expedite the case, former top aid to Robin Carnahan's father, Brad Ketcher thinks this is something a judge will do.

Description: "Well, one issue may be that the ad is up running now as I understand and it's going to be up and running through election day and so it does make sense to try and get the parties some feedback about wheather there's a violation or not before that election."

Ketcher also says he thinks the judge will agree since the case is during a campaign and involves questionable motives by the people bringing the lawsuit.
