forsythSad to say, the only thing that's surprised me about this is that they got caught.
"Seeking to build support among black families for its education reform law, the Bush administration paid a prominent black pundit $240,000 to promote the law on his nationally syndicated television show and to urge other black journalists to do the same."
Yes, our tax money is going to bribe journalists to provide political advertising. To the tune of $240,000. NOW will anybody start giving a shit?
