He was a Muslim Brotherhood follower who wanted to eliminate any western influence from islamist countries and hated the ideas of Saudi Arabia to modernize.
I couldn’t care less about him either.
Khashoggi was no journalist and the media crowd fully understand this. He hated American which made him a friend and colleague of the media. With his connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, he was going to have problem with MBS and the Saudi royal family. More likely, they had caught him double crossing them. He became like Thomas a Becket, a turbulent priest who needed to be rid of. Like Henry II’s loyal knight’s, the Saudi gang that took out Khashoggi were ham fisted doing the King’s work. It would have been much better for him to commit suicide by jumping out of an airplane at 31,000 feet.
The media does indeed care. This whole episode is just a clumsy vehicle to attack Trump. Fake news that always ends with “Trump denies Saudi influence, kickbacks, love child, whatever”.
When reading the MSM always consider first how they are trying to hurt Trump.
I am highly suspicious of the orchestrated effort by congress to get rid of MBS. Why? They talk about Yemen, but what would they want done? Let Iran get a foothold on the peninsula?
