But the Center for American Progress has faced accusations that it does favors for its corporate donors, most specifically in a May, 2013, investigative report by Ken Silverstein for The Nation.
The Center vigorously denies this charge. In a letter to The Nation, it said, The inference at the heart of the authors story is that corporate donations shape or drive the content of CAP and CAP Action. That assertion is baseless and completely false. In December, 2013, the Center released a list of its corporate benefactors, which included Apple, Google, Walmart, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs.
CAP = Podesta = Clinton
