Congressman Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican, has received US $59,300 from the television, movie and music industries in the 2011-2012 election cycle. Entertainment industries have long had a cozy relationship with the Judiciary Committees in the House and Senate, says Ed Black, president and CEO of the Computer and Communications Industry Association, a tech trade group opposed to SOPA. The entertainment industry is the top industry contributing to Smith’s campaign, according to OpenSecrets.org, a website that tracks campaign contributions.”]
