His campaign’s unpaid bills exceed $888,000, according to federal filings.
It is unclear why Sharpton has not paid his creditors. He does not lack for income."
"In August 2011, Sharpton took over the 6 p.m. slot from Keith Olbermann, who earned more than $4 million per year working in the same slot at the network. Sharpton also drew a $240,000 salary from his nonprofit group, National Action Network, in 2011 even as the group racked up nearly $1 million in unpaid federal payroll taxes, interest, and penalties."
I am sure there are both Republicans and Democrats who fit this very bill and wonder why that does not get public....if they dont pay but sound off on television about who should pay......
"Sharpton, who has endorsed President Barack Obama’s calls for taxing the rich, has his own tax issues. He owed the IRS $2.6 million in income taxes in December 2011, as well as almost $900,000 in New York state taxes."

Republican or Democrat, these are the kinds of hypocrits we need to call out ! |
I don't know anything about Al Sharpton's taxes or income, but as a faithful MSNBC viewer I do know that Keith Olbermann was never on in the 6:00pm hour. Keith was always on at 8:00pm. Sharpton replaced Cenk Uygur, the young Turk, at 6:00pm. And Olbermann was replaced by Ed Schultz at 8:00pm. If freebeacon.com got this all wrong, how much other stuff is correct?
