Congressman's Memo Link to ITT Funds Under Scrutiny
The transcript of a March interview with San Diego Union reporter Bob Wilson and released by Sen. Tunney quotes Wilson discussing a memo allegedly written by Dita Beard linking an ITT pledge of about 200000 to financing the Republican National Convention and ITT antitrust settlements. Beard denies writing the memo, calling it a forgery, while ITT officials and newspapers challenge the transcript’s accuracy and context.
