Townhall: Report: The NYT Endorsed Hillary in '08, "the Same Year" it Accepted Money From Her?

By Daniel Doherty, Jun. 8, 2015, Townhall

In the end, it didn’t matter. The New York Times may have thrown its weightbehind Hillary Clinton for president in 2008, but the effort was a waste of time and ink. She lost.

Nevertheless, the Washington Free Beacon—once again, it would seem—unearthed an astonishing bombshell Sunday evening: The Clintons reportedly gave an organization affiliated with the New York Times a nice, hefty sum of casharound the same time the newspaper endorsed her for president.
A little-known private foundation controlled by Bill and Hillary Clinton donated $100,000 to the New York Times’ charitable fund in 2008, the same year the newspaper’s editorial page endorsed Clinton in the Democratic presidential primary, according to tax documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.

The Clinton Family Foundation, a separate entity from the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, has been the family’s vehicle for personal charitable giving since 2001.

It is funded directly by the Clintons and distributes more than $1 million a year to civic and educational causes.
