freshman Rep Adam Schiff has gone headline trolling by announcing that he will introduce CBDTPA-like legislation to the US House of Representatives.
Schiff is a Democrat representing California's 27th District, home to Disney and ABC (his third-largest contributor for this election cycle), Warner Brothers, and NBC (all of whom have studios in Burbank) and DreamWorks SKG (their animation studio's in Glendale). while the 27th District also encompasses CalTech and NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab (both in Pasadena), Shiff, like his Senate colleague Diane Feinstein, seems determined to side with the Big Content against the technology industry.
Schiff won his seat in 2000. in what was billed as the most expensive House race ever, Schiff was aided by $165,000 in contributions from Big Content, including $20,000 from DreamWorks SKG and $18,000 from Time Warner.
