w*****8 发帖数: 703 | 1 Despite its losses on Election Day, the National Organization for Marriage
maintains that Americans still oppose same-sex marriage. But according to
the group’s fundraising numbers, things aren’t looking as hot as they used
to.
According to NOM’s 990 tax form, requested and obtained by the Human Rights
Campaign, the organization’s total fundraising declined by about one-third
in 2011, down from the previous year. This marked the first time NOM (whose
former president was profiled by Salon in February) saw its donations
decline since 2007.
From a press release put out by the HRC, in 2011 NOM raised $6.2 million,
compared with the $9.1 million it raised in 2010. And, according to the HRC,
“Just two donors were responsible for funding 75 percent of the anti-gay
group – the organization reported two donations of approximately $2.4
million each.”
Some other details from the release:
For example, NOM paid $870,000 to CC Advertising – a group HRC recently
filed an FCC complaint against for spamming unsuspecting cell phone users
with anti-gay, anti-Obama text messages.
The organization also paid nearly $375,000 to Frank Schubert, their ad
guru who makes his living largely off of promoting anti-LGBT propaganda.
