[EL] Krauthammer latest to reject the Informational Interest ...

[Scarberry, Mark]

I'm sorry, but I didn't see any evidence in David's post that Dr. Krauthammer was engaged in hypocrisy. That makes it difficult for me to take seriously the other points in the post.

Krauthammer's op-ed is yet another example of two problems with the debates in so much of election law.  First it relies on a theory of abstract individualism and a theory of rights that fails to appreciate how rights must be understood contextually.  Second, it is a position largely devoid  of a theory of where disclosure fits into a broader of democracy.    Lastly, it is a wonderful example of hypocrisy.
FYI:  Here is a version of a recent column of mine that appeared in Politics in Minnesota (not the final version).  http://politicsinminnesota.com/2014/04/schultz-money-v-democracy-and-the-coming-death-of-disclosure/
