FEC Finds Illegal Bible Sale Ties in Falwell Groups
The Federal Election Commission fined two Falwell linked groups six thousand dollars each for an improper financial link in a 1983 sale of Bibles from the I Love America PAC to the Old-Time Gospel Hour. FEC spokesman Fred Hiland said the price was inflated by twenty eight thousand dollars to move funds between organizations. Eiland said the Gospel Hour and the PAC admitted to the transactions in May and agreed to penalties. Falwell disputed any funds shifting.
