Not sure but isn’t it called Capitalism?? I don’t think the MSM would complain if Dan Rather got up and gave a speech on the Bush papers for $4,000 a minute ....

This is capitalism fueled by hypocrisy and conflict-of-interest. Capitalism is not perfect but has the market to generally level such imperfection. As Gore becomes perceived as being self-enriching the market will peter out for him.

Capitalism demands value from a proudt.What Fat Boy is selling isn’t worth 8 cents a minute,the 4k a minute is simply a crime.

Gore is capitalizing on the fact that there are people stupid enough to pay his fee. If people were stupid enough to pay £3,300-per-minute to listen to me, you wouldn’t be able to shut me up.
