Remember when it came to light that despite killing a Democrat debate cosponsored by the leftist Congressional Black Caucus because it was to be hosted by Fox News, John Edwards had taken a fat advance from its parent company News Corp.? Now we learn more:

Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards recently defended taking a lucrative book contract from a publisher controlled by Rupert Murdoch — whose News Corp. empire Edwards has sharply criticized — by insisting that “every dime” of his $500,000 advance went to charity.

Left unmentioned by Edwards, however, was that Murdoch’s HarperCollins paid portions of a $300,000 expense budget for the book to Edwards’s daughter and to a senior political aide, Jonathan Prince.
