NYT: Who's financing the Super PACs?

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/01/31/us/politics/super-pac-donors.html?ref=politics&nl=todaysheadlines&emc=tha2


The Times tracked donors to “super PACs” as they filed reports on Tuesday detailing their activities in the final three months of 2011. Unlike candidates, who can raise a maximum of $2,500 per person for each election, super PACs are independent from candidates and can raise unlimited amounts from individuals, corporations and labor unions, and spend unlimited amounts to support or oppose a candidate.


Easy to follow chart lays out all the big donors behind the candidates.
