Foundation giving

Donors Trust is a 501c3 that gives to hundreds (thousands?) of other charities. Many of them are conservative think tanks, many are schools, universities, medical research centers, etc. It, as a public charity, cannot participate in political activities. Therefore the addition of DeVos' supposed gift (no date given, no amount given, no reason given) to this charity into the article as "political activity" is highly inappropriate. I actually can't see a legitimate reason to add this "factoid" (rumor?) into a BLP. Capitalismojo (talk) 14:50, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your article space contributions. Hugh (talk) 17:24, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
"rumor" The source is NBC News. Do you have reason to believe it is just a rumor? Thanks again. Hugh (talk) 17:24, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
It's not NBC that wrote that, as has already been established at noticeboards. This seems to be coatracking the factoid again and again all over the place, whether it is important in an article or not. Capitalismojo (talk) 02:28, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
