Democrats Appoint RIAA Shill For Convention

Posted by kdawson on Friday April 13, 2007 @05:24AM from the what-were-they-thinking dept.

An anonymous reader sends us to Boing Boing for a report that "the Director of Communications for the RIAA, Jenni Engebretsen, has been appointed Deputy CEO for Public Affairs for the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Denver." The DNC site has the official press release. Cory Doctorow notes that the RIAA is the most hated "corporation" in America, having beaten out Halliburton and Wal-Mart for the honor, and writes for the DNC's attention, "This represents a potential shear with the left-wing blogosphere."

This sucks, but what are we going to do? Vote Republican?
No thanks

How about considering some of the _other_ parties out there? Yeah, you may not win, but if you get enough seats guess who holds the balance of power?
