Colorado Politics: David Sirota, Colorado’s most famous openly liberal journalist (OK, tied with Mike Littwin) is leading a money march for e-mails to find out if Colorado legislators are in bed with the oil and gas industry.
To pay for an open-records request for legislators’ e-mails, Sirota on Friday was urging his audience to help crowdfund $1,670 — less than the price of a 1975 Lincoln Continental in Colorado Springs, coincidentally, though it looks suspicious.
Sirota was well on his way Saturday, according to a tweet by Muckrock.
In just 2 days @davidsirota raised $1700 to release emails between oil/gas lobbyists & lawmakers – only $200 to go! https://t.co/1AXwAsBoYv pic.twitter.com/jZDS4BTnVy
