Have you seen this?

Have you seen the Boston Herald today? Hillary Chabot reports on how  Governor Patrick is funding his July meeting of the National Governor’s Association at Fenway.

Corporations with lucrative business before state government are footing large parts of the tab when Gov. Deval Patrick hosts more than 1,000 governors and other politicians at a $2 million July jamboree.

The wining and dining of National Governors Association members by lobbyists, with ballpark goodies at Fenway Park and picnicking at Castle Island, has watchdog groups raising alarms of undue influence. Some of the fun is also on the taxpayer dime.

Transparency anyone?
