Media $$$$$$ for the Sask Party

Wow, why am I not surprised!!!!!
clipped from mediamelon.net

Private media companies contributed financially to the Saskatchewan Party in 2007 but gave virtually nothing to the NDP and the Liberals. According to this report, Rawlco Radio (whose properties include News Talk radio in Saskatoon and Regina) and the Rawlinson family contributed over 100 thousand dollars to the Sask Party.

Other media contributors to the Saskies include: CTV, $1256; CanWest Media Works, $5,000 and Leonard Asper, $5,000; Harvard Broadcasting, $693.00; Access Communications, over $16,000 and Shaw Communications, $1500. Ad and marketing companies Prairie Advertising, Brown Communications and Phoenix Advertising also donated to the cause. Phoenix Advertising also contributed to the NDP while Access gave to the Liberals.

Of curiosity was a donation of $629 from the Saskatchewan Roughrider football club to the Sask Party and contributions to the Saskies from both the University of Regina and University of Saskatchewan. Huh?
