Important Campaign Finance Story in The Hill with Misleading Lede

The article, “Outside groups switch election tactics to keep their donors secret,” begins: “Outside groups are going to extra lengths to keep their donors secret, worrying that public disclosure could open up their supporters to harassment.”

The Hill has bought into the unsupported harassment nonsense.  Better lede would have said “publicly claiming to worry that public disclosure could open up their supporters to harassment.”

Still, the article is worth reading to look at the lengths corporations and others will go to to have speech, but no accountability.
