Dec 16, 2022: Mississippi Today: SuperTalk radio was a powerful mouthpiece for welfare fraudsters — while raking in welfare funds itself
Perpetrators of the Mississippi welfare scandal funneled more than $600,000 in federal funds to a conservative talk radio station and news network, which then broadcasted glowing spots about the fraudulent program. The state isn’t trying to recoup the money in its ongoing lawsuit. Instead, state agencies continue to dole out public funds to the political machine – more than $6 million since 2009.
