As family feuds go, few have been more intractable than the one that has simmered between media mogul Sumner M. Redstone and his daughter, Shari. For two years the pair has battled over the direction of National Amusements, the family company that owns a national chain of movie theaters and controls the media giants CBS (CBS) and Viacom (VIA), which owns MTV and Paramount. At one point the estrangement ran so deep that Shari, 54, and Sumner, 85, communicated by fax.

Redstone is a PORN KING. He has no moral conscience. His work continues to degrade, debase and destroy what decency remains of our once great culture. He owns and/or controls a huge portion of the global pornography industry, an industry that commits crimes against children and creates drug addicted sex slaves. His god is his own power and wealth. He hates the God of the Bible and His Torah. He funneled millions of his porn profits into Obama’s campaign because he, like all pornographers, knows that a Democratic Party, baby butchering regime will not wince as his hidden minions “push the envelope” of what our fallen culture can stomach. He indeed sings in anticipation with the “Reverend” Wright “God DAMN America!” Like Hefner, he has pulled his daughter into the pit of uncleanness to wallow there with himself. What did he expect of her?
