Christopher J. Dodd (Shill-MPAA)


Senator Dodd Will Not Seek Re-election, Democrats Say. (The New York Times, 1/6/2010)

Chris Dodd Breaking Promise Not To Become A Lobbyist Just Weeks After Leaving Senate; Joining MPAA As Top Lobbyist.  (Techdirt, 2/11/2011)

Excerpt: [from the ah,-the-lies-of-politicians-and-hollywood dept.]   One of the worst kept secrets in DC and Hollywood over the last month or so is the news that former Connecticut Senator and failed Presidential candidate Chris Dodd is set to become the MPAA's new boss (salary: $1.2 million per year). This came after a failed attempt to get former Senator (and failed presidential candidate) Bob Kerrey to take the role last year.

Maybe Dodd should ask for a raise.
