Entergy claims that paid actors who appeared at public hearings to support construction of a gas-fired power plant in New Orleans East were hired*"without Entergy?s knowledge or approval."

A report from investigative news outlet The Lens found that dozens of orange shirt-wearing supporters who appeared at New Orleans City Council hearings concerning Entergy's construction of the $210 million plant were paid through Crowds on Demand, which does what it sounds like.

According to a statement from Entergy, Crowds on Demand was hired by the public relations firm that Entergy hired to organize "local grassroots support" for the plant.?
