Newsmax Pledged $1 Million to Clinton Foundation (SMH!)
Weekly Standard ^ | 2/18/2015 | DANIEL HALPER

Posted on 02/18/2015 6:00:02 PM PST by tobyhill

Conservative website Newsmax has pledged a very large donation to the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, a new report in the Wall Street Journal states.

"Newsmax, a conservative news organization, last year pledged $1 million to the Clinton Foundation over a five-year period, according to a spokesman for Chris Ruddy, the organization’s CEO. Mr. Ruddy has been friends with the Clintons since 2007," reports the Journal.

"Through a spokesman, he said the donation wasn't tantamount to an endorsement of Mrs. Clinton’s potential campaign, though he thinks she would 'make a great presidential candidate.'"

Ruddy himself has even written a blog post for the Clinton Foundation website. The topic? "Public-Private Partnerships Advance Health Care in Mozambique."

My question, precisely.

It does not make sense, so I reserve judgement.

They apparently are just making their money off conservatives but don’t mean what we thought they stood for.

In some ways this is worse than those who are at least up front about where they stand.

I’ve never found much of value from it anyway. Called it “AdMax” for years.

I always found Newsmax a little bit like the Enquirer. Some truth with a lot more embellishment. Kind of like World Net Daily.

CHRISTOPHER RUDDY CEO AND PRESIDENT OF NEWSMAX MEDIA
Public-Private Partnerships Advance Health Care in Mozambique

This morning, I arrived with President Clinton and his delegation in Maputo, Mozambique, to visit the Polana Canhico Health Facility – a facility that treats more than 200,000 clients per year. Located in a densely populated peri-urban area with high levels of poverty and communicable diseases, the Polana Canhico Health Facility has shown incredible progress in maternal and child health and HIV diagnosis and treatment through technological innovations and public-private partnerships that the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) and the Ministry of Health have implemented.

(snip)

The Clinton Foundation demonstrates that public-private partnerships and strategic engagement of private citizens, community members, and local governments can achieve great results in health care. And as I saw firsthand today in Mozambique, this work is innovative in its scope and in its purpose – which is to ensure governments can own and maintain their own health care systems without further reliance on aid. I applaud the Clinton Foundation for bringing together groups and individuals from all sides of the political spectrum to build a world that’s more equal, more sustainable, and that benefits us all.
