FCC launches investigation of Williams' payola

Using taxpayer money for propaganda is illegal and unethical. According to Williams himself, there are many others who have accepted pay-offs.

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Michael Powell today instructed the Enforcement Bureau to launch an investigation into possible payola violations regarding the $240,000 paid by the Bush administration to pundit Armstrong Williams to promote its education policy.
