The latest Koch Brothers Exposed video calls out the Kochs for their distorted philanthropic giving — requiring Koch-friendly professors drill Ayn Rand ideology into students in exchange for donations — and particularly at Florida State University. What’s happening to academia in Florida and the more than 150 American colleges and universities demands national attention — until then, the students are paying the intellectual price.
A new, must-see video short exposes how Charles and David Koch, the wealthy conservative businessmen who fund a number of right-wing causes, are curtailing intellectual freedom and independence at our colleges and universities — even by buying off departments and controlling the professor hiring process.
From our friends at Brave New Foundation, the video “Are The Koch Brothers Teaching You?,” reveals an “old fashioned quid pro quo” where the Koch brothers have agreed to donate money to get professors to teach the “values of the 19th Century Guilded Age” to students at some 150 American colleges and universities.
Here’s the scary part, according to Brave New Foundation:
“The Charles Koch Charitable Foundation has given more than $14.39 million in grants to universities like Florida State, Auburn, Clemson, West Virginia and Utah State. All five campuses are in financial agreements with Koch-supported groups requiring the university to hire candidates who adhere to defined ideological guidelines. In some cases, the Koch-supported groups recommend candidates to the faculty or have sway over the college’s hiring committee.”

Ed Schultz invites Robert Greenwald on his radio show to discuss our latest campaign: Who Are The One Percent?
by The Ed Show | November 3, 2011
One percent-ers beware– Brave New Foundation’s Robert Greenwald and 10 progressive media outlets have started a campaign to expose those “Americans [who] have enriched themselves at the expense of everyone else”.. and they’re calling on the public to name names. There are two criteria: “they have to be in the wealthiest 1%, meaning a net worth over $9 million, and they have to be using their wealth and power to keep down the other 99%. The rest is up to you.”
They’ll compile the reader-sourced suggestions (coming in from all 11 sites) as nominees for the “worst of the 1 percent” and hold a vote– the winners(?) will be profiled in digital films (once again, with reader-sourced information) which will be released online through Brave New Foundation. “We want to support the Occupy movement in any way we can, and we’re hoping one way is to make these available to ground Occupy actions,” Greenwald told Huffington Post.
