$5.97 million from Stimulus paid to Hillary Clinton pollster Mark Penn’s two firms saving a total of 3 jobs
JammieWearingFool breaks this story. Nearly $6 million in stimulus money aka, your tax dollars was paid to two firms run by Mark Penn who just happened to be Hillary Clinton’s pollster in 2008. Federal records show that $5.97 million from the $787 billion stimulus helped preserve three jobs at Burson-Marsteller, the global public-relations and communications firm headed by Penn. Burson-Marsteller won the contract to work on a public-relations campaign to advertise the national switch from analog to digital television. Nearly $2.8 million of the contract was issued to Penn’s polling firm, Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates, according to federal records. So that does this mean? We the tax payers paid $6 million to create or “save” 3 total jobs. What a great deal! Only $2 million per job!
