While there are many times in a politicians time in office, where he or she might regret having certain affiliations with people or organizations, it is becoming quite evident that today anyone associated with the community group Acorn is shunned. This all stems from an series of episodes that Fox News and Hannity ran, showing Acorn members giving unlawful advice to individuals. The problem comes into play as to whether or not this is a matter that should have been raised in the media. There have been several people that I have spoken with that have said they do not agree with the media covering this matter as much as they have, but at the same time they seem to understand the importance of the need for the people to be informed as to the relations that their particular elected officials have with this organization.
So is it right that there has been so much coverage on this matter? Personnaly I think the media is covering this matter pretty well. We as citizens and tax payers deserve to know that those organizations that are receiving our money, are using that money in legal and for legitimate purposes. Those that are not, should be delt with by legal means.
