Political Dark Money: Much Ado about Nothing?
via Watchdog.org
“A story by the Center for Public Integrity on “dark money” in politics published Thursday morning reveals the hypocrisy of the charge that only center-right groups accept money from anonymous donors.
The piece by Liz Essley Whyte, a reporter for the largely left-wing funded, Washington, D.C.-based investigative news group, calls hypocrisy on 21 politically active groups “that advocate against anonymous donations in politics [but] are themselves responsible for putting money into elections that cannot be traced, often hidden under layers of opaque networks.”
She writes that the groups gave to ballot measure campaigns or political action campaigns, or paid for candidates’ political messages.”
