Cenk Uygur
Bio:
Before founding Wolf-PAC, Cenk Uygur created The Young Turks, the world's largest online news network. After the Citizens United ruling, he spent a year studying the problem and speaking with experts about appropriate solutions. In October of 2011, Mr. Uygur announced Wolf-PAC. He named it Wolf-PAC because "they're not coming for us, we're coming for them." As chairman of the board, Mr. Uygur does not take a salary or make money from Wolf-PAC. Rather, he does whatever he can to ensure the end of the corrupting influence of money in politics, a frequent topic of discussion on his flagship Young Turks nightly news program, the longest running streaming show on the internet.
