More progress in the MSM. Frank Rich at New York Magazine is talking about the rich funders who are buying the presidential election, and he singles out Adelson and Moskowitz, and links Richard Silverstein in the Guardian:
You’ve likely heard of Sheldon Adelson, the Vegas tycoon who is Benjamin Netanyahu’s unofficial ambassador to the GOP. But you may be less familiar with Irving Moskowitz, the bingo entrepreneur who funnels his profits into East Jerusalem settlements.
What catches my eye are the links to ACPR, AEI, AFSI, American Crossroads, Birthers, Christian Zionists, CSP, Frank Gaffney, Hudson Institute, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, JINSA, Joseph Farah, Western Center for Journalism, Yitzhak Shapira and ZOA. Moskowitz occupies the innermost ring of the Israel lobby, along with a few dozen other billionaires.
