foreigners owning US media: major national security threat
more powerful than owning military stocks
most MSM is already owned by US enemies IMO, via shell companies, investment trusts.
wouldn’t surprise me one bit if the PLA is, via a convoluted trail, a major owner of US media
It's the only fair thing to do, isn't it?
Soon to be re-named “EL TIEMPO DEL NUEVA YORK”...or some such.
I wonder if Slim Shady will hire illegals to run the NYT plant?
Pull the Plug on the New York Slimes!
And if he buys the preferred stock, I have a great bridge down the street from the NYT which could make the same tidy profit and has the same voting rights.
The Times Co. has about $46 million in cash and $1.1 billion in debt
Pretend I'm your neighbor. I have $460 in the bank, I owe $11,000 in credit card debt, every month I continue to earn less and spend more $$$ than I earn, and in the next 2 years, I also have to pay off 3 loan sharks an additional $10,000...in full.
Further perspective, we live in Silicon Valley and the business I own sells typewriters.
Would you invest in my company and loan me money? LOL...
Isn’t there a conservative Billionare on our side who can by the slimes, then kill it? Rush you listening?
There is nothing more dangerous than a rich liberal with power and the goal to control other people.
Their personal greed combined with their belief they have a right to control other’s actions and movements because they care more, know more, and deserve more than the rest of us are the ingredients for their ultimate demise and failure. Unfortunately we have allowed them that position either by electing them to represent us or by buying their product.
New York Times could have made choices about 20 years ago to be what it was first intended to be, the distributer of truth based on the gathering and reporting of facts to allow customers the ability to evaluate these facts and form their own decision.
They have gone from that to a daily distributor of propoganda for the sole purpose of changing policy, opinion and furthering their political agenda.
They have become nothing but a daily advertisment for the Democratic party and every tin horn dictator in the world.
This is God’s way of telling Carlos he has too much money.
Oh yes Senor Slim.....there is really a pig in that poke. He is a good pig. You will be fortunate to own such a wonderful pig.
Carlos Slim is rich because he’s a crook. He’s a terrible investor. Maybe he should have a talk with Sam Zell before investing in a paper.
So Pinch is trying sucker a Mexican gangsta?!!Silly boy!!
Check this out....Mexico is falling apart and Calderone is going to build their biggest resort ever....right in the middle of the war....I wonder how much of our 1.5 billion is going into this fiasco?
PUBLIC-PRIVATE VENTURE: Mexico plans $6B resort on the Pacific
The Los Angeles Times
January 18, 2009
It would be one of the most audacious tourism projects in Mexican history. More than 33,000 hotel rooms. An expanse twice that of Cancún. Nearly $6 billion in investment.
The giant resort would be built on Mexicos Pacific coast, about 50 miles south of Mazatlán.
In September, Mexican president Felipe Calderón announced plans for the public-backed project. Still unnamed, it is the largest tourist effort since the government helped build resorts in Cancún, Ixtapa and Los Cabos more than two decades ago, he said.
Mexican officials have yet to discuss another possible drawback: The proposed site is in the state of Sinaloa, one of the countrys most violent corners, where the dominant drug-trafficking alliance has split into feuding armies. As a result, Sinaloa has almost daily shootouts and one of the highest death tolls in Mexico. The violence has at times spilled into Mazatlán.[snip]
Since Carlos is rich in a socialist economy, where grtaft and 10 families rule the market, he has never had to make real business decisions in a real market economy...wait a minute I think he bought and closed CompUSA. I hope his magic touch in business helps the Times to reach the heights achieved by the restored Carlos Slim run CompUSA.
