Who here would sign away their right to donate politically for their job?
(Assuming you have other prospects)

Who here finds that appropriate to demand? I find it odious at best.
Love to see an electoral intimidation/interference complaint aimed at the policy.

It’s fairly common in some fields. Government employees and military are limited in the level of political activity they can participate in. MSNBC (and probably most real news organizations) have rules about political donations. MSNBC is pretty far left so don’t think their audience minds the favoritism. I don’t think it’s a big deal but I applaud the network for enforcing its standards.
