Access Hollywood: Detailing a Hollywood Mogul’s Connections to the White House
1st June 2013
There’s been plenty of talk about how the Democratic Party is strongly supported by Hollywood — and MPAA boss Chris Dodd famously threatened politicians that Hollywood might not fund their campaigns if they didn’t support SOPA. So it’s quite interesting to see Mother Jones’ detailed analysis of Hollywood mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg’s strong support of President Obama’s last campaign. There’s a lot of nuance in there, so this is not just a case of clear tit-for-tat political funding in exchange for political favors. The article states multiple times that Katzenberg doesn’t really seem that focused on getting anything back for his efforts and money.
Democrats, the Party of Corruption since Boss Tweed.
