Last week the anti-financial reform astroturf group Stop Too Big Too Fail, which is masquerading as pro-reform, was using MIT economist Simon Johnson’s name and image to disguise their efforts, until he demanded they stop.
Now, in a new ad campaign, the group is using Robert Reich’s image and a quote of his taken out of context. Reich tells TPMmuckraker that the group is “cynically and purposefully distorting what I said.”
