Democratic Lawyer Marc Elias Linked to Controversial Media Operation in Swing States

Elias's firm represents Star Spangled Media, which faces scrutiny over its political content and campaign finance disclosures.

  • Star Spangled Media runs Morning Mirror, a site promoting Democratic candidates under the guise of local news.
  • Arizona regulators question whether the site should comply with campaign finance laws.
  • The media network boosts Democratic narratives through social media ads without clear disclosure of its funding sources.
  • Marc Elias, known for his involvement in the 2016 Steele dossier, leads the legal defense for Star Spangled Media.
  • Critics argue the operation blurs the line between journalism and political campaigning.
