Court to decide anti-Hillary Clinton movie case
Source: Reuters/Yahoo

By James Vicini – 10 mins ago

WASHINGTON, Nov 14 Reuters – The U.S. Supreme Court agreed on Friday to rule on a new challenge to the federal campaign finance law by a conservative group that wants to broadcast and promote a movie critical of Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton.

The group, Citizens United, released the 90-minute documentary film "Hillary: The Movie" in January when the New York senator was running for president.

Citizens United released the movie to theaters and for store sales on DVD. The group also planned to broadcast the movie on cable television video on-demand, and to pay the fee for viewers to be able to see the movie.

That should put a crimp in his career of liberal, hate-America-first policies!
