CHARLES KOCH GETS OPINION PIECE IN THE WSJ...

and all he got for it was a False rating from PunditFact:
Charles Koch, in op-ed, says his political engagement began only in the last decade
Charles Koch wrote that "it was only in the past decade that I realized the need to also engage in the political process."

Even if you ignore the deep reservoir of money Koch spent on "educational" and lobbying efforts -- expenditures that could plausibly be described as "political" -- Charles Koch personally gave a little more than $50,000 to candidates and political committees donations prior to 2004. And collectively, his brother and the PAC of the company they own directly supported candidates and political committees to the tune of $7 million over the same period. We rate his claim False.
