Another Bail Out

I don’t know why anyone would think bailing out the media may impair objectivity.

    The good old standby. When all else fails raise taxes. They are going to shaft us one way or another. The only thing saving us from a vat tax is that it is an election year.

    Beck Blames One Of Fox News’ Largest Shareholders, Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal, For 9/11

    Glenn Beck declared that Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, the largest stockholder of Fox News outside of the Rupert Murdoch family, “flew … the plane into the trade centers.”

    . . . during his monologue, Beck never mentioned that the very Saudi Prince Beck accused of being behind the 9/11 attacks is a close friend of his own boss, Rupert Murdoch, or that Beck’s employment at Fox News is financed by that same Prince. Without a tinge of irony in his voice, Beck implored his listeners not to trust any offering of money from Prince Alwaleed, despite the fact his own salary depends on him.

    Prince Alwaleed has grown close with the Murdoch enterprise, recently endorsing James Murdoch to succeed his father and creating a content-sharing agreement with Fox News for his own media conglomerate, Rotana. As ThinkProgress has reported, many conservative activists have been enraged at Fox News for allowing Prince Alwaleed to dictate its content. For instance, Prince Alwaleed had boasted in the past about forcing Fox News to change its content relating to its coverage of riots in Paris. Curiously, Fox News has also rejected television ads criticizing America’s dependence on Middle East oil, a source of wealth for the Prince Alwaleed family.

    Well RML, wouldn’t you say it takes a fair amount of courage then to speak against somehow who may have such a strong influence on your future.

    Exactly what do you find to fault Beck for. Your own comment points out what he has to lose, yet he still spoke out. And you somehow think he has done something underhanded.

    Take your meds.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
