科切拉音乐节的母公司正在向一个推动反堕胎议程的政治组织捐款。

Okay, so here's the deal: The Anschutz Corporation, which owns AEG (the company behind Coachella), donated $75,000 to the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) shortly after Roe v. Wade was overturned. RAGA is actively working to get anti-abortion AGs elected in states where abortion access is still uncertain. Anschutz claims they've been donating to RAGA for years and that the donation wasn't related to abortion. Philip Anschutz himself says he supports a woman's right to choose. A bunch of Coachella artists, like Billie Eilish and Harry Styles, have spoken out against the overturning of Roe. AEG says they support women's reproductive rights and will cover travel expenses for employees who need to go out of state for abortion care. It's worth noting that Anschutz has a history of donating to right-wing groups, including some with anti-LGBTQ stances, though they've also donated to other causes. In Wisconsin, the upcoming AG election is a big deal, with the Republican candidates all vowing to enforce the state's abortion ban if elected. RAGA is already planning to spend money to support the Republican candidate.

I used to work for the anschutz company in colorado. He owned a resort out there.

Fuck this guy. Company mistreated staff, took all employee tips and dished them out later in a shady fashion, and also treated J1 like indentured servants. Real shady company that had a history in town for just plowing through locals in the work force. Everyone had a story of working at this resort and leaving soon afterwards.

They want to play all sides.

“[a]s a personal matter, Philip F. Anschutz believes in a woman’s right to choose and did not support the reversal of Roe.”

What they don’t say is, “we are capitalists. we support those in power who create policies that enable us to make the most amount of money with the least government oversight. If it happens that those same people want to take away the liberty of others, that’s $75k I’m willing to pay. It’s a very good investment.”

This is nothing new, there were articles like this a few years back when they were throwing money at MAGA. Coachella sold it's soul when Goldenvoice teamed up with AEG. It gave them the money to make some significant improvements to the festival, but 10 years later that fest is a sad shell of its former self.

Anyone who is new to the fest will surely disagree, but that's because they don't understand what that festival was like before big money took over. The target demographic shifted from music nerds to clout chasers.

It's not just Coachella. AEG is one of the leading if not THE lead in global entertainment.

If you've been to a show or a sporting event recently, AEG was most likely involved in some aspect.
