:The Constitution makes no reference to free speech for corporations, only individuals. Besides, if he's being paid for it, it's hardly "free speech". Seems to me it's about as free as he is and I'll bet his salary is pretty steep.
Deceptive trade practices are illegal and this borders DAMN CLOSE to that. Will any thing be done about it? Not in this country. At least, not as long as these companies keep funneling cash into the mouths of our noble officials.
It's just another way to lobby. A damned despicable one, but that's all it is.
Again, welcome to the USA Inc.
I recalled that corporations are made of individuals. There is no difference between corporation or individuals when it comes to our freedoms granted in constitution.
