Show 10: Shining a Light on Corporate Political Contributions

Corporate Watchdog Radio speaks with Center for Political Accountability (CPA) Co-Directors Bruce Freed and John Richardson about their work to bring transparency and accountability to corporate political giving.

Its advocacy has resulted in six companies--Morgan Stanley, Johnson & Johnson, Schering-Plough, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Eli Lilly--implementing policies to disclose their political contributions.
