Freedom, does not change.

Which makes a fine bumper sticker but still doesn't address anything discussed in the thread.

I don't know. I'd have to speculate. Let's see, they like him. ummm, they are trying to pull in US readership to boost their ratings and sell more ads?

I pick the later.

There is a payoff I am sure. There always is. What is your point?

I am curious about peoples opinions of what various media sources motivations for giving support to people they give support to are....what do you think the 'payoff' is?

Let me take you back a few centuries.

Crucible Of Empire : The Spanish-American War - PBS Online

There is always an ownership and sometimes even the ownership has an owner.

I like rt news. They report U.S. news that the U.S. won't, for whatever reason they choose not to. People in other countries know about Ron Paul, because in those countries, he makes interesting news. So, where do I learn and get my news about Ron Paul---?

Have no idea. Anything I say would be speculation.

They are a business so I am sure there is benefit related to that. Certainly, from my viewpoint I think Paul promotes a much more peaceful and prosperous world.
