Rachel Maddow, the most influential host on MSNBC, called out parent company Comcast on Monday night for being among the corporations that contributed financially to the White House's expensive East Wing ballroom construction project.

Last week, the White House released a list of 37 large corporations - including Google and Apple - and individual donors that have contributed to the $300m ballroom project. But only one, Comcast, owns and operates media companies, including the left-leaning MSNBC.
