You are absolutely correct sir that Comcast is a public corporation and I apologize for my laziness and trying to utilize my aging recall on this particular subject. I should have gone back and checked it out as it has been years since I visited the subject.

Notwithstanding the public corporation fact though, Comcast voting control is controlled by the leftist Roberts family.

In a Feb. 12, 2014 Voting agreement we see this. It reads in a very small part, to wit:

Voting Agreement

On February 12, 2014, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, TWC entered into a voting agreement with Brian Roberts and certain family trusts and investment vehicles which together hold approximately 471,435,749 shares of Comcast Class A Common stock and 9,444,375 shares of Comcast Class B common stock. Pursuant to the Voting agreement, each Principal Stockholder agreed , among other things, to vote all of its shares in favor of the stock issuance and against any actions that would impede the consummation of the merger.........

It goes on and on but simply put, the Roberts family and their trusts completely control Comcast and Brian Roberts himself is the largest shareholder in Comcast of Class A common stock at 33.1%. Ralph the dad is 93 years old and is Chairman Emeritus. Brian, 55, is CEO.

So, again, your right it is a public corporation but I am right that Brian Robert’s, a self proclaimed Obama lover and huge financial backer, and ORIGINAL supporter of Obamacare, controls Comcast. This means what our kids see on his channels has been washed through the Marxists and socialists that surround Obama each day.

The other half dozen or so major media companies are also controlled by far left jewish families. Why exactly that is, I don’t know. But, control of the media by far, far lefties is a fact and it is also a far bigger danger to this country than that punk Vladimir Putin and I look forward to the day that Freepers start speaking up regularly and forcefully about it!

There are many things legislatures and conservative local governments could do to gain some leverage on this subject but ALL OF US have just let the bastards run wild for decades!
