"After it was revealed that he had accepted ringside boxing tickets from the Nevada Athletic Commission over a two-year period in which the commission was trying to influence pending legislation,"

This part brings into question the previous part. This is slanted. Yes, Reid accepted both tickets and credentials that allowed him to watch these matches. The tickets were reimbursed, per House rules. In addition, Reid voted for the legislation in question, but the Commission was opposed to it. So the alluded to quid pro quo didn't happen.

Maybe this is just another attempt to "balance" reporting by making up stuff about a Democrat so that bad actions on the Republican side can be published...
