The NAACP and free-market evangelist Steve Forbes joined a growing chorus this week in criticizing DISH Network's scheme to bilk taxpayers out of more than $3 billion. In a letter to FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler Thursday, the Communications Workers of America and the NAACP claimed that in the FCC's most recent spectrum auction, "the largest beneficiary of the 'small business' bidding credit was DISH Network, a company with a $34.6 billion market cap."
