| Be nice to the gentleman, and he'll be nice to you... A charity administered by the New York Times received a $100,000 check from the Clinton Family Foundation on July 24, 2008, months after the paper endorsed Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary, according to a New York Times spokesperson. However, the check was a “replacement check” for one that had been sent in 2007 that the Times never received, the spokesperson said. “The Neediest Cases Fund received a $100,000 check from the Clinton Family Foundation on July 24, 2008,” Times spokesperson Eileen Murphy said in an email to BuzzFeed News on Monday. “It was a replacement check for one dated June 22, 2007, that was apparently sent to an incorrect address and never received.” “As you may know, The Times administers the Neediest Cases Fund, heh which provides direct assistance to New Yorkers in need through seven beneficiary social service agencies,” Murphy said. “This donation and our editorial board’s endorsement of a candidate in the 2008 Democratic primary have absolutely no connection to one another.”

| #4 Rammer, it would be interesting to see how much Candy has contributed to the Clinton slush fund. |

| #2 I don't suppose the Pub Congress is going to be looking into the pro quid pro arrangements the Clinton Foundation (read as money laundering or slush fund or pass through deals) has had with Hillary and others. Will this be a question that comes up in the 2016 election debates by the likes of a Candy Crowley? |
