"The Oklahoma Democratic Party has asked for an investigation into alleged ethics violations by Gov. Mary Fallin.The party alleges Fallin has violated the Communications Act of 1943 and Oklahoma state ethics laws.According to Democratic Party officials, Fallin's violations involved two public service announcements that began airing in August.\"It is unfortunate, but we don't have a choice but to ask the U.S. Attorney and DA Prater to look at these violations. We are asking the U.S. and district attorneys' offices to determine if the Governor of Oklahoma, Mary Fallin, or her staff was involved with the creation and dissemination of these PSAs in order to willfully subvert the Federal Communication Act and Oklahoma ethics laws,\" said Wallace Collins, chairman of the Oklahoma Democratic Party.District Attorney David Prater confirmed he received a letter from the Democratic Party on Tuesday, and said his office is reviewing the allegations.\"No inquiry or investigation has been opened at this point,\" Prater said.Fallin's office said her participation in filming PSAs is appropriate and legal. A spokesman for her office said it's a practice that many governors have participated in while in office.Spokesman Alex Weintz said after Fallin films the spots, it's up to state agencies to try to put them on television.\"We are not responsible for and have no influence over what is run on television,\" Weintz said. \"It's up to TV stations to follow FCC guidelines. That's not up to us.\"Weintz said the law the Democratic Party is questioning is an FCC law that applies to television stations."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
