  • When a non-profit organization called Citizens United attempted to air and advertise a political documentary called “Hillary: The Movie” (funded in part by corporate contributors), the Federal Election Commission said that this would be a violation of the 2002 Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, which proscribed corporations from engaging in “electioneering communication” within 30 days of a primary or 60 days of a general election.
    Do corporations have a right to engage in political speech? Can corporations donate directly to political campaigns? Prof. Michael R. Dimino of Widener University’s Commonwealth Law School examines campaign finance and corporate contributions in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission.

    I feel more of an adult, not for having watched this video, but rather to have acquired a taste for the background music's free-form jazz.

    My gosh, that was actually a very moderate and even sided explanation of a court case. Thank you!

      The federalist society is heavily biased.
