March 31, 2003) — A former Clinton administration official will share a $1.4 million settlement from a New York nonprofit Internet access company accused of misusing federal grant money from the National Science Foundation.
David Lytel, who served as an adviser to the Office of Science and Technology Policy during the Clinton administration, filed a federal whistleblower lawsuit against NYSERNet in 2000.
Lytel was NYSERNet’s president between April and August of 1998 but was fired when he questioned the handling of a federal grant, said his attorney, Washington, D.C.-based lawyer Bonny Harbinger.
Seems very strange to me.
This has Clintonian scandal written all over it. $1.4 million as a whistleblower? He served FOUR MONTHS in a management position at that company. Direct from the White House to a firm that was misappropriating Federal Grants. Which he then exposed. SURRRRRE!
Lytel got his start in Ithaca, NY. Gadfly TLBSHOW lived in Oneonta, NY. Mere coincidence? LOL!
Any Freepers who say there is no difference between the Clinton and Bush Administrations needs to be ZOTTED from this forum immediately, no matter how long they've been here bitching, whining and not contributing one penny to fund raising campaigns.
