"It is dangerous to be sincere unless you are also stupid."
- George Bernard Shaw
[Ashcroft] approached XM in the days after the merger was announced offering the firm his consulting services, a spokesman for XM said, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal.Sellouts! Let the eeeeagles soooar...like they've never sooooared before...The spokesman said XM declined Ashcroft's offer to work as a lobbyist for the company, the Journal reported.
Ashcroft was subsequently hired by the National Association of Broadcasters, which is fiercely opposed to the merger. On its behalf, he conducted a review of the effects on competition if the two satellite radio companies were allowed to merge, the Journal reported.
