How Much Money did Axelrod's PR Firm Get from Obama

Reader Cathy took a cursory look at Obama's expenditures and found that David Axelrod's AKP Message & Media was paid at least $1.4 million from the Obama campaign in 2008 thru August 31. And that's just what she found.
Those dates would not include the ad in question, which was posted Sep. 11th.
I wonder how you bill astrotrurfing. Is that itemized, hourly, or is it just a flat retainer?
UPDATE: Since the FEC report for September isn't due til next month, do you have to put a payment on the books if the company you paid gave the money back and said, "Hey, I'll cover this one"???? You know, like, my treat.
