Lehman CEO Contributed Heavily to Democrats – Will Media Notice
You would think what donors are cozy with which campaigns - especially in the midst of a presidential election cycle - might be a relevant story for the media, especially at a time when everyone is quick to point fingers at which political party is to blame for financial turmoil.
