CBS 6 - WTVR, Richmond VA. Contributes CASH to the Virginia Democratic Party

According to VPAP, CBS channel 6 gave $1250.00 to the DPVA. This was not a in-kind contribution, but CASH. I wonder what Richmond Times-Dispatch copy editor Pam Mastropaolo thinks about this?

(D) Richmond Times-Dispatch, Pam Mastropaolo, copy editor, $1,650 to the Democratic Party of Virginia in February 2007, and $1,165 in February 2006.

Mastropaolo didn't reply to messages. Nor did the managing editor, Peggy Bellows.

Update, July 11: According to Style Weekly in Richmond, Mastropaolo and political reporter Michael Hardy (see above) were suspended for one month without pay for violating the paper's ethics guidelines. The union is contesting the suspension.(LINK)

I guess we can see where WTVR's loyalties are. I think they have some explaining to do. Ask them about it!
