Clinton gave $100K to New York Times group in same year paper endorsed her (June, 2015)
Washington Free Beacon ^ | June 8th, 2015 | Alana Goodman

A little-known private foundation controlled by Bill and Hillary Clinton donated $100,000 to the New York Times’ charitable fund in 2008, the same year the newspaper’s editorial page endorsed Clinton in the Democratic presidential primary, according to tax documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.

The Clinton Family Foundation, a separate entity from the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, has been the family’s vehicle for personal charitable giving since 2001. It is funded directly by the Clintons and distributes more than $1 million a year to civic and educational causes. The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund is a charity affiliated with the newspaper that assists underprivileged New Yorkers.

The Times’ editorial board endorsed Clinton against Democratic challengers John Edwards and Barack Obama on January 25, 2008. The Clinton Family Foundation did not list the specific date the donation was made in its public tax disclosure forms. Neither the Times nor a representative of the Clintons responded by press time to a request for comment. Clinton ended her presidential campaign on June 7, 2008.

The NYT hasn't endorsed a Republican for President since Eisenhower. They were going to endorse Hillary no matter what.

So... do the NYT articles count as a benefit in exchange for a contribution, or as paid advertising?

The NY Slimes haven’t endorsed a Republican since Dwight D. Eisenhower... 60 years of being liberally tainted makes their endorsement worthless. 20 Dumocrat endorsements and 8 Republicans since 1886 and 4 or those 8 were from 1886 through 1908. Since then the only Republican ensorsements were: Wendell Willkie in 1940 (after 8 years of Roosevelt), Thomas Dewey (from New York) in 1948 and Eisenhower in 1952 and 56. Their endorsement isn’t worth spit.

Pretty much what they accuse Trump of doing, no? Does the NYT discuss this story?

How much money did The NY Times leverage out of the Clintons for this year's endorsement?

The clintoons are disgusting career criminals and serial liars. That anyone “likes” them is pathetic. What subhuman wastes of air and space.
