10:56 PM Strict not all Coachella founder for liberal admirers: "the bulk of billionaires are Republicans" | |
Paul Tollett, co-founder of the Coachella music festival in southern California, which takes place every year, gave a rare interview on Friday, in order to see the discussions around the Christian limited owner of the festival Philip Anshutz. Coachella, in real time in its own 20th year, is organized by Mr. Tollett's Goldenvoice Productions, a subsidiary of the Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), which is owned by billionaire Philip Anshutz. Mr. Anshutz's own political figure, who is said to have given almost $ 200,000 to Republican politicians and super-patients in 2017, has been the subject of controversy for the festival, and fresh calls for a boycott emerged Tuesday afterwards such as the 2019 festival lineup was announced. Mr. Tollett, who protects half of Coachella's affiliation, told the Los Angeles Times, in fact, that it will be difficult for critics to find a billionaire who does not support a limited politician. "Most billionaires are Republicans," he said. "The billionaire attached to the Live Nation is considered a supporter of the Republican trump. Ticket Manager, same thing. Madison Square Garden? Billionaire trump supports. I take into account, in fact, that Mr. Anshutz is not a supporter of trump. It doesn't make sense to me. I run the show 365 days a year, taking all the conclusions.” Mr. of Tollett said, in fact, that Mr. Anshutz has “thousands of companies” and does not contain the slightest cause to the organization of Coachella. Not least, Mr. Anshutz has shown “no discrimination” and "good for all of us," Mr. Tollett said. | |
