Posted Tue May 15 2012: from London Guardian:
Heartland Institute grows isolated as three more donors disassociate http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1337121171
Heartland Institute was cut off by three more corporate donors on Monday, further isolating the ultra-conservative thinktank from the mainstream business world. The defections reinforce the sense of Heartland's isolation, ahead of its major climate contrarian conference in Chicago next week. A number of prominent speakers also pulled out of the conference after Heartland put up a billboard on a Chicago expressway suggesting believers in climate change were akin to serial killers. In statements to advocacy groups, pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly, BB&T bank and PepsiCo confirmed they would not fund Heartland in 2012 -- dealing a blow to the thinktank's plans of building long-term relationships with major corporations.
