CORE's complaint against Ken Salazar in the Washington Times
Washington Times

The Washington Times carried this piece in John McCaslin's "Inside the Beltway" column, with the headline ELITE BACKYARDS:

New Interior Secretary Ken Salazar "is going Hollywood on us" by caving in to actor Robert Redford's demands that oil and gas leases in Utah be canceled.
"The only winners in this decision are the Hollywood elites who use our western states for a personal playground, burn a lot of energy to keep their private jets aloft and their mansions warm, and don't notice if energy costs go up," charged Niger Innis of the civil rights group CORE, which organized a protest in Salt Lake City against the actor "and his extremist environmental friends."
"When people are reeling from a bad economy, how can Ken Salazar justify listening to Hollywood elites, like Robert Redford, instead of struggling consumers and low-income families who count on Salazar and the Interior Department to ensure that they will have access to the American energy they need?"
