FEC’s Decision To Grant CU The Media Exemption
Citizens United President David N. Bossie Statement on FEC’s Decision To Grant CU The Media Exemption:
I am very pleased that a bipartisan majority of the Federal Election Commission saw fit to grant Citizens United the media exemption. As the producers of 14 feature-length and award-winning documentaries, Citizens United is an important voice that should not be subjected to extremely burdensome campaign finance regulations simply because we are not a multi-billion dollar media corporation. Since we produced our first film in 2004, all we have ever sought is to be treated by the government in the same manner as corporate film studios and other members of the establishment media, and I thank the Commission for leveling the playing field today.
