Clinton didn't lose because Chozick and Ryan wrote biased articles calling her a crook. She was still ahead in the polls and on track to be elected despite the best (worst) efforts of the NY Times. She lost because of Comey and voter suppression efforts in key states (WI, MI) that affected African American and young female voters.<br /><br />If Somerby were to spend his time reading Clinton's recap, What Happened, he might understand the arguments about what did and did not cost Clinton the election. The NY Times is annoying but it wasn't the decisive factor in the election. Somerby might find interesting what Clinton has to say about the Times herself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-19985236489973163962018-05-07T20:55:18.636-04:002018-05-07T20:55:18.636-04:00708 Greg- I think the point is that your original...708 Greg- I think the point is that your original point is a bit banal and off the mark.

The rating is based on annual federal tax documents. It was not intended to reflect whether Hillary Clinton kept donors to her family’s foundation at appropriate arm’s length or provided favored access as secretary of state … Charity Navigator’s president, Michael Thatcher, told The Associated Press that the Clinton campaign did not influence the rating.<br /><br />The four-star badge comes at a time when the Clinton Foundation is under intense scrutiny about whether Clinton granted donors access at the State Department. An AP analysis found that of 154 people outside government with private interests who met or spoke to Clinton by phone, 85 had contributed either personally or through their organizations to the foundation. The Clinton campaign said Clinton would have met with the donors, anyway, in her role as secretary of state.<br /><br />The watchdog had previously rated the Clinton Foundation with four stars in 2007, and in 2012 downgraded it to three stars due to changes in its methodology. Its original four-star rating was based on the foundation’s financial health and performance. In 2012, it also evaluated the charity on accountability and transparency. Charity Navigator requires five independent board members, but the foundation had only three during the 2009 fiscal year, Thatcher said. The downgrade came the same year that Charity Navigator was a member of the Clinton Global Initiative.<br /><br />The Clinton Global Initiative waived its membership fees for Charity Navigator, as it does for nonprofits, nongovernment organizations and social entrepreneurs. Charity Navigator treated the $20,000 waiver as an in-kind donation. Thatcher said his group joined Clinton’s to mingle with world leaders and promote its ratings.<br /><br />He said the new rating was unrelated to Charity Navigator’s relationship with the foundation. “The numbers speak for themselves,” he said.<br /><br />According to its 2014 consolidated tax report, the Clinton Foundation spends about 12 percent of its budget on running the foundation. Another charity watchdog, Charity Watch, previously gave the Clinton Foundation an “A” rating on a scale of A-F. Charity Watch has no connection to the Clinton Foundation, said its president, Daniel Borochoff. “We don’t want money from charities we rate, because we believe in being an independent charity watchdog,” he said.<br /><br />Charity Navigator stopped rating the Clinton Foundation entirely in 2014 because it said changes in the foundation’s business structure were incompatible with the way Charity Navigator calculates its ratings. After what Thatcher described as “unprecedented demand” for a rating for the Clinton Foundation, Charity Navigator asked the foundation to consolidate its tax forms in a way the watchdog could evaluate it. That led to Thursday’s four-star rating.Just Another Block-Citing Blockheadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-22877116735574199282018-05-07T19:08:28.295-04:002018-05-07T19:08:28.295-04:00Notice you didn't try to spoof my post in real...Notice you didn't try to spoof my post in real time, it's point being rather hard to get around!

Last year, it ran more than $8 million in the red" (Confessore and Chozick).<br /><br />Do any of us know what that means? Do Confessore and Chozick? Is it actually bad?<br /><br />I would imagine that foundations derive revenues from fundraising and investment returns, and have expenses that include program expenses (spending on charitable good works), internal expenses (wages for staff...) and other fundraising expenses (mounting events, flying movie stars...). Presumably the "deficit" is revenues - expenses for the year in question. <br /><br />Generally, for a well-run foundation, the dominant expenses are those associated with programs...spending on good works. So is it bad when a billion dollar foundation (that is a foundation that has, over the years, accumulated assets of $1 billion) spends $40 million more than it raises or earns in that year? For these years, was the effect of market movements positive or negative? Isn't it generally considered a Good Thing when a foundation spends a lot on programs, rather than hoard its assets? Should a foundation temporarily defund what might be a multi-year initiative to, say, combat river blindness, if the stock market goes down?<br /><br />Or was that quote just another snarky hit that C&C could hurl at the Clinton's?Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18279699469077090424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-78972703566081928152018-05-07T17:54:54.149-04:002018-05-07T17:54:54.149-04:00I'll tell my Yorkie-owning Trump-voting brothe...I'll tell my Yorkie-owning Trump-voting brother who takes his Yorkie on trips with him to prepare to be jeered at.
