Craig Westover outed as GOP party hack while on PPress editorial endorsement board

[Minnesota Raindog]

When he's writing editorials at the Pioneer Press, faux Libertarian hack Craig Westover describes himself as "a contributing columnist to the Pioneer Press Opinion Page and a senior policy fellow at the Minnesota Free Market Institute (mnfmi.org)." But as Two Putt Tommy at MN Progressive Project discovered, Westover is up to his neck in GOP party politics and evidently was even when he was on the newspaper's editorial endorsement board in 2006. Read more about this sorry excuse for an editorial page and their response to Tommy's excellent mole work here:

1. Well that sure explains a lot

Never could stand that guy's writing, like he was living in a libertarian fantasy land where all things, including the playing field, are equal.
