Heller's son paid $52K by campaign for social media work
RENO, Nev. (AP) — Campaign finance records show U.S. Sen. Dean Heller's campaign paid the Nevada Republican's son at least $52,500 over the past two years.
The Reno Gazette Journal reported Friday that 29-year-old Harrison Heller's Utah-based business has no other employees and is not listed as a paid vendor for any other federal election campaign.
Heller's campaign says in a statement that the senator's son "produces quality content at a cheap discount" and creates social and digital media for Fortune 500 companies.
The younger Heller and his singer wife also document their lives in video blogs on You Tube.
