A spokesperson for the Senecas said the television commercials are running only in the Buffalo media market while the radio spots are targeted at select areas of upstate New York. Federal Communications Commission filings show purchases in the Buffalo and Albany regions with the commercials already running this week.

The current TV buys run for about a week while the radio spots will run until April 18.
