Report: Former CPB chair violated law

Kenneth Tomlinson was a Republican put in to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting by the Bush Adminstration in an effort to swing public broadcasting to the right. The Report found emails between Tomlinson and Rove and also found that the CPB head had his hand in creating and producing the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board show on PBS which, as you can imagine, bends hard to the right. He also put spies in to monitor programming on NPR and Bill Moyer's NOW, without board approval.

I want to point out that this demonstrates more unethical and illegal activity by those on the right trying to impose their ideology on the entire nation. So let's look again at the list of Republicans indicted or under investigation for illegal activity:

Libby
Rove
Delay
Tomlinson
Abramoff
Safavian

And I'm sure I'm forgetting others. Imagine what we would find if the Democrats were in control of Congress and able to have their own investigation.
