Anonymous Funder of Wisconsin Voter Suppression Billboards Revealed
http://thepoliticalcarnival.net/2012/10/29/anonymous-funder-of-wisconsin-voter-suppression-billboards-revealed/
Madison — A joint investigation by theGrio news service and One Wisconsin Now has uncovered that Milwaukee’s Einhorn Family Foundation is the “private family foundation” that anonymously funded voter suppression billboards in Wisconsin in September 2010 and again this year. A review of IRS documents also showed Milwaukee’s Bradley Foundation, headed by Scott Walker’s campaign co-chair Michael Grebe, and one of the largest sources for right wing funding in America, gave the Einhorn Family Foundation a $10,000 grant, at the time the 2010 suppression billboards appeared, “to support a public education project.”

Emphasis mine.
Not really shocking and sadly, nothing will come of it I'm sure.
