Armstrong Williams
Who: Conservative commentator and host of the TV Program The Right Side
What: Williams accepted $240,000 from the US Education department to plug Bush’s No Child Left Behind program (1/10/05)
Detail: Williams has since apologized for this stunt, but the Bush Camp refused to take responsibility. A spokesman for Bush said the money came from the Department of Education, not the Bush Administration. Isn’t Bush the president and oversees the Department of Education?
