Default FoxNews getting more ridiculous

Fox News gets even more ridiculous.

Rupert Murdoch is the owner of News Corp, the parent company of Fox News.

First, Murdoch was embarrassed by a public interview regarding whether Fox News should be supporting the Tea Party. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WzM4ytF48g

"Asked by an official at the progressive watchdog group, Media Matters, whether it was ethical for officials at Fox to promote the Tea Party movement (as has been documented on some occasion) he replied without hesitation."

“No. I don’t think we should be supporting the Tea Party or any other party. But I’d like to investigate what you are saying before condemning anyone.”

Apparently, he does not watch Fox News.

Second, Rupert Murdoch donates $1 million to Republican party. http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/296219
"Murdoch’s News Corporation is supporting the RGA and Republicans in general because of the party’s pro-business agenda.
His media empire includes the New York Post, Wall Street Journal and Fox News. Their editorial support is given to the Republicans, according to a report in The Guardian."

Of course, this is legal, because the Supreme Court says that corporations can donate as much as they want in support of any political campaign - or against any. Individuals cannot, so he did it on behalf of News Corp. Nonbiased? No.

Third and most recently, "Veterans Today" is reporting that Jon Stewart catches FoxNews in the Lie of the Century. "CAUGHT!! FOX NEWS FUNDING “TERROR MOSQUE” AT GROUND ZERO". The second largest owner of News Corp is the Prince of Saudi Arabia, Alwaleed bin Talal. http://www.veteranstoday.com/2010/08...t-ground-zero/

"Fox News owner Alwaleed bin Talal, who, according to Fox News, has ties to terrorist organizations and the Iranian government, also owns, of course, Fox News and pays the salaries of those who say the man funding the Ground Zero Mosque is a terrorist." says Stewart. The “Terror Prince”, HRH Alwaleed bin Talal, cited by Fox News as supporting radical Islam and formenting the growth of terrorist organizations, personally runs the Kingdom Foundation charity funding the “Ground Zero Mosque” in addition to his co-ownership of Fox News/News Corp with Israeli-American investor Ruppert Murdoch.

Alwaleed bin Talal, may be the largest shareholder in Fox News, but legally he is not allowed to make any policy decisions. Yeah right. However even thought he maybe a sponsor of the ground zero mosque he is not the largest contributor, that honor goes to our very own Rockefeller family.

I think the elite have their own reasons for promoting this mosque and its not to promote freedom of religion.

Personally, I do NOT think the Islamic Mosque should be ANYWHERE near
Ground Zero site. I feel it's an affront to the many who died in the Twin Towers Bombing. Regardless of Religious Freedom issues, build the
Darned mosque elsewhere!!!!!!!!

The point is that Murdock first says that Fox should not support any party, then donates to the Republican party and give editorial support to them.

Honestly, it is all about money. The Fox employees better be careful about whomever they treat with contempt though.

Yes, 1200 Muslims died in the WTC. Let them put a mosque where they want. I thought this was a country of religious freedom? If we stop this what do we stop next?

Personally I can think of a few religions I would see as a good thing to limit becasue they are fear mongering idiots. Anyone want to help?

Beings that the destruction of the WTC and the other buildings had little to do with Muslims and everything to do with Cheney and our shadow government I think a Mosque should be put on ground zero for the political damage done to their religion and war against Muslims that it has intentionally instigated. Hundreds of thousands of innocent people have died due to this tyranny.... and many more yet to come due to the weapons of mass distruction we have used on their soil.

The greatest tyranny done has actually been to the American people's soul. They have been lied to and are now lead by evil forces... unwhittingly, yet they are responsible for themselves and who they choose to hate... and hate always begets evil and terror.

Ahhhh yes... since liberal bias in the media is a given, let's get rid of that dang Conservative Fox News so there's absolutely no annoying opposing views.

I don't care about their views. I don't watch any FoxNews programs.

I just think it is funny that the head of a supposedly mainstream network news says that they should not support any political party, then later donates a million to a party. What a liar.

I'll be surprised that any other mainstream network news with be that biased. But I have been surprised before.

I think putting a mosque at ground zero is in poor taste to say the least, BUT I agree

While Islam is nowhere near the “peaceful religion” that the MSM would have us believe that it is, this precisely why the NWO types use its radical elements to carry out some of their plans. As it then becomes the villain that everyone can point their finger at, rather then the ones who are actually doing the planning and plotting.

And we are just beginning to see just what this “harmless” depleted uranium munitions scattered all around Iraqi is having on kids being born there and our troops and their families are not immune from this either. But then sadly I believe that is all part of the plan.

Of course they have and it does matter if they’re watching Faux news or the Clinton news network or any other MSM outlet as the people at the top of these companies all have the same agenda. They want total control over the people. Our elections have been turned into a joke as the candidates are carefully reselected for us.

Along that line here is a letter I recently submitted to my local papers “letter to the editors” column.

The election is near and we are seeing the usual diehard republicans and democrats saying all our problems are due to the “OTHER” party’s incompetence and if we would simply vote for them they will fix all our problems. But will it or has it? Take a look at our history and at some of the more important issues like the economy and war. Perchance do you see a pattern here? It doesn’t matter which party was in power because nothing ever really changes. Spending keeps going up and we keep fighting wars. Why is this?


It is my belief that many of our leaders are merely puppets for an elite group of individual quietly working behind the scene who are pulling the strings. These individuals are only concerned about their power and being in command. They have no loyalty to any party or even the country but through their control of much of the media they are able to essentially pre-select who our candidates will be, thus insuring that only those who will follow their orders get elected. Consider the last election was it just a coincidence that virtually from the beginning many in the media were telling us that Hillary, Obama, and McCain were the only viable candidates while everyone else was either ridiculed or ignored?


So if we ever hope to change this pattern we need to elect people, from any party, who will truly represent and work for us. Thus I have three questions I would ask of any candidate.


1.
Have you actually read the constitution?
2.
Were you able to understand and comprehend what you read?
3.
And most importantly will you actually follow its rules and limitations?

Of course. Much of the way our current medical system works (a pill for whatever ails you) is directly to the Rockefellers in the early 1900's.

As away to improve their already tarnished image it was decided they should build medical training and research schools at no cost to the public. Which naturally sounded good to the general public. But what the public didn't realize was that any new pill or procedure discovered was to remain as their property.

That way they would be the one to manufacture and sell any new pills and their newly trained doctors would be required to prescribe only these approved pills or lose their license. Thus we have the beginning of our current system.

Exactly. Also see the flexnor report! If a physician would tell a patient to take pectin and fish oil instead of a statin, the patient could sue the doctor.

Ok..so...The ground zero issue...

While we DO have religous freedom, putting a mosque at the site is going to stir up so much controversy, it will not be worth all the riots and media issues and all the crap that people will do about it. Can you smell vandalism with this? It's like the same efffect that prohibition had...too much havoc and crime will be associated with it.

Nothing should be built on the site but a memorial! No church of any religion. No, I am not against religion one bit!! But nothing, no business, nothing should be built there but a park with a big memorial! If Muslims wish to go there and have a religious memorial service, they may. If Christians wish to do the same, they may. This will make everyone satisfied because everyone will be able to have the services that they want.

Think about it! If you knew even one person who died in the WTC, would you really want something other than a memorial to be built there? We are forgetting the importance of 9-11 and how serious this impact was on our country and our people! By building something else there, we are taking away from the sympathy and patriotism, enough said!!

It's not actually "on" the site - and where would you draw the line? five blocks away? ten blocks away?
