Where can I find more information about Richard Mellon Scaife?

I'm not a fan of the guy... I would just like to know how he became the powerful right-wing nut job that he is today...

Peace,

4. "The Hunting of the President" by Conason and Lyons

has a lot of info about that a-hole Mellon-Scaife. The man is a freak. He's a multi multi-millionaire freak who gives millions and millions of dollars to the sleaziest of the far right-wing loonies.
