A George Soros-funded economist taught a course to the Occupy Wall Street protesters purportedly to help the activists better understand what caused the global financial crisis.
Joseph Stiglitz also recently addressed the so-called social protests rocking Spain.
Besides accepting funding from the controversial billionaire, Stiglitz has engaged in numerous projects with Soros and sits on the boards of Soros organizations, including one openly seeking to remake the world's economy.
Soros' own ties to the anti-Wall Street movement are coming under some news media scrutiny.
Yesterday, in an article titled "Who's behind the Wall St. protests?" Reuters reported on the billionaire's connection to Adbusters, the magazine that is reported to have come up with the Occupy Wall Street idea after Arab Spring protests toppled governments in Egypt, Libya and Tunisia.
Adbusters is funded by the Tides Center, which acts like a massive clearinghouse of donations to a slew of liberal groups.
Critics have alleged the center acts to obscure the ultimate sources of donations by collecting large sums of money from a few large donors and then funneling the money to thousands of liberal causes.
Soros' Open Society Institute is a prominent Tides Center donor, giving the group $3.5 million between 2007 and 2009 alone.
