Bill Dedman, writing for MSNBC, rats out 144 journalists who made political contributions from 2004 through the start of the 2008 campaign.
When questioned about their contributions, a few journalists admit it was a mistake (some say unwittingly so) and apologize. I am inclined to give them a free pass. Others raise the proverbial middle finger. I am inclined to hold up a mirror - facing them. Yet others made excuses that would make Bill Clinton proud . . .
. . . My father wrote the check and I (Calvert Collins - pictured) was just building rapport with candidates. Heck, where was Ms. Collins when I was in high school? (Very rude of you to say "she wasn't born!")
