This is standard operating proceedure. There was an article earlier today about the liberal reporters that were on the Clinton payroll.

Libs don't see anything wrong with it when they do it, Why should it be an outrage when a conservative does it.

Clinton was a filthy lying rapist moral degenerate. So we should feel reassured that this administration was simply living up to the standards established by the Impeached Rapist?

I'd like to see the whole story. I don't like the idea of payola. However, I also would like the full story. I don't trust the MSM, and most of the people listed are not movers and shakers. If guys who actually had persuasive power were receiving money, I might be concerned, but paying people to produce stuff for government purposes is pretty common. Most of the "Dust Bowl" pictures produced that were used to promote Franklin Roosevelt's policies were produced by people on the Federal payroll. I believe Ansel Adams produced many of his photographs of National Parks for federal dollars, and those photographs were used to promote the national parks systems. The Sierra Club makes extensive use of them.

Bottom line is, I don't like payola, but I do want to know the context of the payments before I rend my garments and cover myself with sackcloth and ashes.
