need help crowdsourcing CITIZENS UNITED information

[nashville_brook]

I'm helping our local Occupy group do an informational series -- first one is on Citizens United.

Does anyone have links to FAQs, timelines or other basic info? Any DU'ers have a journal on the subject?

Any help would be waaaaaay appreciated. Will credit any original material.

1. I have written on it but I would suggest looking at Land Shark's posts

on the subject.

4. thanks! will do.

that gives me more to use the search function on, too, b/c if you just do "citizens united" the returned amount of stuff is overwhelming.

i'll check LandSharks journal and search too.

2. A lecture given yesterday by Russ Feingold on the subject:

"Corporate Power in Politics and the Economy: What the Citizens United Decision Means for Our Democracy" can be seen online at this link: http://media.uoregon.edu/channel/2011/10/27/corporate-power-in-politics-and-the-economy-what-the-citizens-united-decision-means-for-our-democracy/
