Rev. Al Sharpton Suspected Of Big Business Shake Down

While Al Sharpton arguably holds the strings to the African-American community, able to rally groups at will, he's also being accused of pulling on purse strings of big businesses.

According to the New York Post, almost 50 companies have given Sharpton money -- including PepsiCo, General Motors, Wal-Mart, FedEx, Continental Airlines, Johnson & Johnson and Chase -- and some labor unions sponsored Sharpton's National Action Network annual conference in April.
