Hi Lamont,
Thanks for your comment. We define Koch-funded as directly from the wallet of Charles or David Koch so individual donations from these two, money from their family foundations or institutes, money from Koch Industries or other Koch run political organizations. Money to TPUSA from Reason or FIRE could be from the Kochs, but it could also be from another individual. Therefore, we consider contributions like these Koch ties.
TPUSA has received funding from 4 different groups that the Koch Brothers fund: https://www.ibtimes.com/political-capital/who-funds-conservative-campus-group-turning-point-usa-donors-revealed-2620325 (note: the author seems to have missed that Reason Foundation and Foundation for Individual Rights in Education are also Koch funded). They also host events attended by Koch-funded pundits like Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, Dave Rubin, etc
Why is the video inactive at http://www.prwatch.org/news/2014/05/12464/heartland-institute-reluctantly-stands-denial-cigarette-smoking-risks ?
Can you provide the video somehow?
You used to have a video posted of Joe Bast's denial that he had ever denied smoking causes cancer. What happened to it? Why was it taken down?
Can you put it back up on that page, or send it to me privately?
It used to be available at https://www.prwatch.org/news/2014/05/12464/heartland-institute-reluctantly-stands-denial-cigarette-smoking-risks
