Louisiana Public Broadcasting Executive Director Beth Courtney and her husband paid a $10,000 fine after the state ethics board determined that TV production subcontracts involving Bob Courtney's company
violated conflict of interest laws, reports the Baton Rouge
Advocate. (The ethics opinion is posted
here.) Accuracy in Media, a right-wing media watchdog group that
endorsed Kenneth Tomlinson's campaign to balance public broadcasting, issued a
news release calling for a federal investigation into whether Beth Courtney, a CPB Board member who opposed Tomlinson, violated CPB's ethics code.
