Klipsch... er... Koch

Mother Jones got their hands on a document from a Koch brothers donor meeting. It included this:

"Other heavy hitters slated for meetings with the Koch brothers or their representatives included Carl Berg, a Silicon Valley real estate tycoon worth $1.1 billion; Ken Griffin, who founded the hedge fund Citadel and clocks in at No. 103 on the Forbes 400 (net worth, $4.4 billion); John W. Childs, a top private-equity investor; and Fred Klipsch, the chairman of the headphone and speaker company Klipsch Group."

I know ideological waters are turbulent ones, but personally, I like to know this sort of thing about those who profit from my buying decisions (not that I own anything from Kilpsch).

I'm not in the market for any headphones or speakers at the moment, but I appreciate the heads-up. Thanks.
