In Comments Brigid notes: Just last year, FactCheck’s primary funding source, the Annenberg Foundation, also gave $50,000 to the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence for “efforts to reduce gun violence by educating the public and by enacting and enforcing regulations governing the gun industry.” Annenberg made a similar grant for $100,000 in 2005. I wonder if any of the Annenberg Foundation money made it to the phony, lying, astroturf, “American Hunters and Shooters Association” who purport to support shooting but don’t.
I worked for some time at a very Liberal Elititst West Coast Private University – who’s founder was anything but that. It doesn’t take much when the Left is all Lawyers.
This is what happens when professional foundation managers get control of a foundation and they seem to infiltrate them all.Walter Annenberg was a member of the <>Nixon Administration<> for God’s sake. The same thing has happened to the Rockefeller foundation and the ford foundation and all the others.The Gates Foundation is starting out liberal with $100 Billion. We can only hope they do most of their ‘good work’ outside our country.If any of you make a ton, or win the lottery, please, please spend every penny of it on guns, women and every possible form of dissipation. Keep it out of the hands of the do-gooders.
