"Federal auditors said on Friday that the Bush administration violated the law by buying favorable news coverage of President Bush's education policies, by making payments to the conservative commentator Armstrong Williams and by hiring a public relations company to analyze media perceptions of the Republican Party." -New York Times excerpt
Well it is great to hear that this kind of propaganda is illegal. So now what? As Dan Gilmore points out, "...which government official or officials will be charged with a crime? Who will go to trial?" And I agree with his answer...Nobody. Nobody will be held responsible for the blatant abuses of power by this administration.
