A.P. offers this report.

The Orange County Register offers this
report, with the subhead: "Those who sign the big checks have
agendas: power or profit or ideology or pleasure – even better
government."
The Sacramento Bee offers this
report, which begins: "When revealing details of their finances to
comply with the state's conflict of interest disclosure laws,
California officials fill out forms that are much like erotica from the
early 1900s: They bare a bit of their personal financial flesh, but
much is left to the imagination. The adequacy of the law and the
disclosure forms have come under scrutiny since details of Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger's $5 million magazine deal were revealed this month in
an obscure and much later securities filing, but not on his own
disclosure form."
The Washington Post offers Democratic
Booster Cuts Liberal Spending.
Kevin Spillane writes this
Los Angeles Times oped. See also this
