IRS Also Targeted Groups Using Words Like "Israel," "Progressive" and "Occupy," According to AP

Political targeting broader than what was previously admitted to

The Internal Revenue Service's screening of groups seeking tax-exempt status was broader and lasted longer than has been previously disclosed, the new head of the agency acknowledged Monday.

Terms including "Israel," "Progressive" and "Occupy" were used by agency workers to help pick groups for closer examination, according to an internal IRS document obtained by the Associated Press.
