According to OpenSecrets.org, a website maintained by the Center for Responsive Politics, United States Senators Charles Schumer (D-NY) & Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY) are still the Books, Magazines & Newspapers industry’s top two bitches, having swallowed $102,500 and $92,200, respectively, in industry campaign contributions for the 2010 federal election cycle. Assuming they are publisher agnostic, I wonder how Schumer & Gillibrand feel about the one-year boycott SFWA just slapped on Night Shade Books.
