"Didn’t I hear that a Saudi prince now owns a percentage of NewsCorp and all staff have been told to paint the birthers as kooks or worse?"

I'm not aware of any specifics on the influence of content at Fox News, but Saudi Prince al Waleed bin Talal, a nephew of Saudi King Abdullah does have somewhere in the neighborhood of a 5.5% voting interest in the Fox News parent corp., News Corp.

I believe that bin Talal is the same Saudi that Zer0 bowed to.

no- zero bowed to the king.
I saw cavuto’s interview with the prince and it was very interesting. the guy is a smart investor and likes to make money. he considers newscorp a good investment and i agree with him lol. I don’t see him having any influence in fox content at all.
