The Journal Inquirer in Connecticut filed an official complaint against WWE with the Federal Election Commission, claiming that WWE violated federal election law by helping Linda McMahon's campaign via their threat to sue the newspaper and writer Chris Powell, who have criticized McMahon's bid to become Senator.
As we noted last week, Powell noted McMahon made her money on a business based on "violence and pornography." WWE was not specifically named in the article.
The newspaper is claiming that through WWE, McMahon's campaign is "meant to discourage our right to criticize McMahon" and has a "chilling effect" on local journalists covering the political scene in Connecticut...More?
