More than 100 journalists and executives at major media companies,
from NBC's top executive to a Fox News anchor to reporters or editors
for the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, USA
Today, CBS and ABC, have made political contributions in recent years.
Some of these donations, detailed in Federal Election Commission
records, violate the companies' own policies. But these policies vary
widely; some media firms allow donations, others bar them for newsroom
employees but not business staffers, and still others restrict only
those covering politics.
