Edwards criticizes opponents for taking donations from News Corp.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former North Carolina Senator John Edwards is criticizing Democratic rival Hillary Rodham Clinton for taking money from News Corp. officials.

Edwards says Clinton has taken more than $20,000 in donations from officials. He argues that the company’s Fox News Channel has a right-wing bias and Democrats should avoid the company.

Edwards led the Democratic candidates’ boycott of Fox’s plans to host a Democratic presidential debate. Now he’s objecting to News Corp.’s purchase of Wall Street Journal publisher Dow Jones & Co. He’s also highlighting the relationships that Clinton and other
rivals have with the company’s executives.
