Peta kills animals. Mercury in fish is not a problem. Increasing wages of the lowest paid will harm America. Trans fats and sugars are good for you. Junk food is good for you. Climate change not a problem. The Washington Tea Baggers protest grew out of a grass roots movement: American corporate spin, aided and abetted by Rick Berman and exposed by Maddow. Brilliant!

			Rachel Maddow continues her work pulling back the layers of American politics to expose underhanded and manipulative lobbying tactics to the public.

Why don't we know who is footing the bill? Because Berman orchestrates a cadre of non-profits to represent corporate political aims, and they do not have to reveal their donors. Maddow pointed this out at the top of the interview, and again after Berman was given the chance to correct the record and chose then to defend trans fats  -- leading Maddow to prod him to reveal to her audience at least the fact that someone was paying him to take sides on the issue.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.alternet.org/story/143161/rachel_maddow_takes_on_the_man_doing_corporate_agribusiness%27s_dirty_work"><div align="center"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aMSVnTiw97U&hl=en&fs=1&" height="329" width="400" wmode="opaque" quality="high" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.alternet.org/story/143161/rachel_maddow_takes_on_the_man_doing_corporate_agribusiness%27s_dirty_work"><div align="center"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/M5M1BIAN74c&hl=en&fs=1&" height="329" width="400" wmode="opaque" quality="high" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3EF5A1B8-0FBC-42EB-9AF7-3F0A1E0CF7B7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
