CMD has already done an invaluable service by exposing the corporate dating service for state lawmakers known as <a href="http://alecexposed.org/" rel="nofollow">ALEC</a> -- the American Legislative Exchange Council. Fifty corporations and nonprofits have dropped out of ALEC since CMD began its exposes.<br /><br />Their first target is the <a href="http://www.prwatch.org/node/12221" rel="nofollow">Sodexo Food Service</a> contractor, which siphons cash from kids and soldiers while dishing up scandal and subprime food.<br /><br />Sodexo was accused of overcharging 21 New York school districts and the State University of New York from 2004 to 2009. The company was also implicated in the British horsemeat scandal earlier this year and shipped chicken that may have been contaminated with Listeria bacteria  to the Marine Corps' Camp Pendleton.<br /><div><br /></div><div>Read the whole thing <a href="http://www.prwatch.org/news/2013/09/12221/outsourcing-america-sodexo-food-service-contractor-siphons-cash-kids-and-soldiers" rel="nofollow">here</a>. </div>
