CULTURE OF CORRUPTION: Steyer Vows to Spend Big in 2016, Media Suddenly Not Concerned About ‘Money in Politics.’
The media pretends that the Left’s benefactors aren’t really that rich, you know. Nothing like the KOCH BROTHERS FINANCIAL BEHEMOTH. In this post alone, the writer lets Steyer’s NextGen PAC play coy about how much it will spend, while quoting a NextGen memo decrying “the Koch brothers’ unprecedented campaign spending…” In reality, Steyer spent almost $69 million more than the Koch brothers in the last election cycle. . . .
Steyer’s name, on the other hand, is rarely mentioned in the media. He’s practically a publicity ghost. Hell, his name didn’t even make it into the headline of the Reuters post. They referred to him as “green donor.” In fact, the Koch brothers get mentioned twice as many times as Steyer does in the article, and it’s about him.
Tom Steyer is the $74 million elephant in the room and the press barely knows his name or acknowledges his existence.
Wise GOP presidential candidates would do well to mention him often.
Indeed.
