I said it was a circus.....hope those protesters feel USED because that's what happened....what a ridiculous thing to get upset about....oh, and didn't it just take attention away from any REAL news/controversy/problems/issues....
Rupert Murdoch, Beck, Hannity etc. are USING the American Conservative Movement to line their pockets and by being a mouthpiece for political policies that favor the richest corporations and in this country.
7% stake must mean a lot more to you than it does to people who actually invest.
So you think 7% of NewsCorp is pocket change? Why don't you go ahead and take over, I'm sure it is profitable business. That way, you get to be the super savior, stopping the funding of the "terror mosque" from Fox News. Those terrorized people will love you forever.
In 2008 he was estimated to be worth $21 billion. If he funded the entire Mosque he, himself, could build 210 of them... The people claiming the money he's made from his investments in News Corp need to come up with more evidence that he only used his profits from that investment to fund the $100 million project. Otherwise this entire thread is a facade to just gossip even more about Fox News.
Its Fox who is playing this guilt by association game.
If your going to use this guilt by association line of attack it works both ways, not just for those you don't like, but for yourself as well.
True enough, afterall doesn;t GE own both NBC & MSNBC and haven't they sold parts and technology to Iran that have been used against US service men and women via Hamas? Yes, guilt by association leaves NBC and MSNBC as murderers of our military.
I'm glad this came out about hte Saudi Prince, maybe he can be eliminated from financing anything or travel to the US. The US has courted the Saudi royal families for too long and to our detriment. It must stop.
Fox could mimic NBC Universal and only spin/report positive news about its owners and investors. Real news would be critical of all sides not just the side opposite of your CEO who happens to be on the economic team of Obama.
The real problem here for all those most vocal:
Quote:
Fox is the most trusted television news network in the country, according to a new poll out Tuesday.
A Public Policy Polling nationwide survey of 1,151 registered voters Jan. 18-19 found that 49 percent of Americans trusted Fox News, 10 percentage points more than any other network.
So if I was a billionaire would I invest in failing ventures like NY Times, CNN, MSNBC, NBC.. et al or would I pick the one that actually makes money? Of course if I had the same interest in mind that many in here do I would always pick fail, or flail.

He was one of the largest donors to Harvard too...
Fox News this, Fox News that.....the left just HATES that conservatives have a major media outlet in their corner. Of course most of the rest of the media is left, but that never counts for the left.

If you're falling of the left-sided cliff everything to the right looks like it is far right.

So if I can capture the essence of the point here its alright for FOX to critcize a mosque because of terrorist donations but also iacceptable for billionaires with terrorists connections to invest in FOX because its profitable?
Addtionally Fox is a respected network and NBC spins the news? God help us.
