Wheels Start to Come Off MPAA
Via Tapped: As Roll Call reported yesterday (subscription required), congressional conferees excised a bunch of movie studio tax credits this week from a gigantic, long-in-the-works international tax bill (it’s the same bill the Washington Post is so upset about, incidentally). Why’d they do it? Well, the Motion Picture Association of America really pissed off DeLay and the other administrators of the K Street Project (the long-term effort to shut Democrats out of top lobbying positions, detailed by Nick here) when they hired a Democrat to replace Jack Valenti as MPAA head earlier this summer.
