Free Press Under-Reported Lobbying Expenses

Really great article over at Daily Caller on the discovery that Free Press under-reported lobbying expenses for lobbying Congress, the FCC, and NTIA.  This is primarily a big deal because Free Press blatantly attacks the right on a daily basis on the grounds of transparency but routinely fails to open up about who is funding them along with much of their activities.

If you aren’t familiar with Free Press, you best get up to speed.  The organization is a socialist playground started by Robert McChesney, a hard core socialist, who famously stated in the socialist magazine Monthly Review,

“…gains will only be made through an enormous class struggle from below. If won, they will not, we underscore, eliminate the evils of capitalism, or the dangers it poses for the world and its people. In the end, there is no real answer but to remove brick by brick the capitalist system itself, rebuilding the entire society on socialist principles. This is something that the great majority of the population will undoubtedly learn in the course of their struggles for a more equal, more humane, more collective, and more sustainable world.”

So if you aren’t familiar with Free Press or their activities, I greatly encourage you to start watch dogging them, and the post on Daily Caller is a good start.
