speaking of donations... News Corporation Shareholders Rebel Against Company’s Political Donations In August, News Corporation — the media company owned by right-wing tycoon Rupert Murdoch and the operator of Fox News — gave $1 million to the Republican Governors Association. Several weeks later, it donated another $1 million to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. ------------ Now, shareholders may be taking notice of the potential illegality outlined by Millhiser. The New York Times reported today that The Nathan Cummings Foundation, a shareholder of News Corp., wrote a letter to the company’s board objecting to the company’s political donations, and warned against the use of “corporate treasury funds to further the personal political agendas of corporate management.”
Interesting. I'll just note that our household went completely cellular last March and come to think of it, we've had no polling calls or robo calls.
simply horrible, that republicans would dare to spend money on candidates they support. quite shocking, really.
Military ballots may nto count in Illinois Idiots. How can states fail to mail letters on time. It's pathetic. New Mexico, New York, and now Illinois.
why is your characterization of the contributions relevant? btw, has obama accounted for the contributions to his 2008 campaign from the Gaza strip?
Did anyone say the Chamber of Commerce should suffer legal consequences for not revealing their finances?
No it's not - they have one bank account. Second - it doesn't matter. The "domestic" COC from which you are wrongfully claiming the money is "segregated" launders millions from foreign companies like BP (B stands for British), Siemens, Glaxo etc etc etc etc.
better than laundering money from hammas, hezbollah, syria, iran, palestinians, etc., as the Obama campaign has done. btw, why does Chris Coons love the CoC? http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2010/10/027461.php
