Bachmann paid Fox News makeup artist $4,700
Source: Raw Story
By David Edwards

Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann likes to call herself a fiscal conservative but some voters may question that after seeing her latest campaign expenditures.

Campaign finance filings indicate that during a two-week period in the month of June, Bachmann spent nearly $4,700 with just one makeup artist.

Payments of $1,715, $250, and $2,704 were disbursed to Tamara Robertson, a Maryland-based stylist. According to her LinkedIn profile, Robertson works as a makeup artist for Fox News.

Robertson is also credited for her work in A City Upon a Hill, a film produced by Citizens United and hosted by Newt and Callista Gingrich.
