Journal snjoseph's Journal: No Hack Left Behind

USA Today: Bushies paid commentator to promote No Child Left Behind

Not the first time they've been nabbed spending taxpayer cash money on fake news propaganda. Armstrong Williams, a prominent Black conservative, was contractually obligated to use his connections to get pro-administration stories on Black media and plug NCLB on his show. He neglected to mention to his listeners that he was being paid $240,000 to do so.

For his part, Williams said, "I wanted to do it because it's something I believe in." I suppose $240,000 is merely the fee to get him to believe in something.
