Levels of Scary: Beck, Palin, Target, Fox and Then …

You know about Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin. You know about the $150k contribution by Target CEO, and the infamous $1 million contribution by News Corp (Fox), but did you know about the Koch brothers and the $100 million they’ve been funneling to Republicans and now the Tea Party? Those who thought they were working against ‘corporate interests’ are actually the stooges of corporate libertarians Charles and David Koch. If you didn’t know about them you’ll want to.
Read the story on NPR, “The Brothers Koch: Rich, Political And Playing To Win“. Terry Gross on Fresh Air talks with Jane Mayer, a staff writer at The New Yorker, profiles the brothers and their political connections in the Aug. 30 issue of the magazine. Her article “Covert Operations” describes how the billionaire brothers’ political interests “dovetail with [their] corporate interests” to wage a war against Obama.
