The kind folks over at CRC have updated their post and pointed out an egregious error in my latest post about CRC's earth-shattering new study that uncovered liberal bias in the grantmaking of the foundations of Fortune 100 companies. I wrote:
I was not aware that CRC published on its Web site the entire list of the recipient organizations of the corporate foundations it examined. As standard practice, it's helpful to mention in a print article the fact that additional data is available online.
Page two of the print article detailing CRC's research says:
For a complete list of the foundations and their grantees, see the August 4, 2006 highlight at http://capitalresearch.org.
It's always helpful, especially when employing the somewhat delicate art form of sarcasm, to get the facts right. Maybe I was distracted by the high-school-yearbook-quality of the adjacent photo of JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Diamond. Whatever the case, I've been sufficiently, and deservedly, chastised by CRC for my error.
CRC is free to use this oversight on my part as reason to dismiss me as a "self-marginalizing" critic. I'll continue to keep a look out for the release of a "study" from CRC that does anything other than confirm the organization's liberal conspiracy theories. Until then, CRC will continue to influence only its ideological soul mates.
