Journalists and Campaign Contributions

I’m sorry but I don’t see the problem. The notion that journalists should be political and ideological eunuchs is absurd. There should be disclosure, but I don’t see the source of all the fuss. So NYT "ethicist" Randy Cohen gave to Moveon.org. Big whup. The one tiny benefit of being denied U.S. citizenship solely because of my HIV status is that I can simply tell campaigns any donation I could give would be illicit. But if it were legal, and HIV-positive immigrants weren’t deemed beneath citizenship, I’d give freely. And disclose freely.
