Maggie Gallagher - paid-for journalist (HHS)

Feds to Probe Maggie Gallagher's HHS Contract

The Government Accountability Office will investigate whether the Department of Health and Human Services violated the law by awarding a $21,500 contract to Universal Press Syndicate columnist Maggie Gallagher for marriage-themed writing projects, according to a story in today's Washington Post by Howard Kurtz.

When reached this morning by E&P, Gallagher said: "This is the first I've heard of it . I can't comment right now because I need to get fuller information."

Gallagher, who didn't disclose receiving the money before press reports revealed it in January, has said the contract didn't influence what she wrote in her column.

wonder just what this 21,500 dollar contract says?
