Well, Jeff Bezos just bought the Washington Post for $250 million.
Surely there are million/billion/butterdezillion-aires somewhere within the conservative ranks?
Are they willing to tell the truth? Willing to face the risk that they’ll be tagged an Alex Jones right out of the gate? How will they establish their credibility, and with who?
Glenn Beck dutifully mocked the birthers, to keep his secretary safe. Then he created his own media company. But he couldn’t come clean on the birther issue without admitting that he lied when lives had been threatened and wouldn’t expose the lies he knew had been happening. Since then he’s tried to break some big stories but knew it couldn’t come from him because it would just be written off as crazy talk. Even with absolute proof that he handed off to the supposedly “credible” news sources, he could not get any editor to allow the reporters’ stories to run.
This is part of the reason I say that we have to have people who mocked the “birthers” come clean. It’s the only way to start over. I believe Breitbart was about to do that but the government listened in on his phone conversation with Joe Arpaio, knew he was thinking about turning and had the credibility, resources, and new willingness to turn things around, and so they killed him less than 5 hours later. The story that Michael Hastings was working on, about John Brennan, could well have included information about Brennan’s role in sanitizing Obama’s passport record. And he also IMMEDIATELY ended up dead in suspicious circumstances that the LAPD refused to investigate.
For the media to come clean on this issue is the thug regime’s worst nightmare. Whoever gave the signed statement to Doug Hagman has the ability to turn this country around. What he needs is the courage to do it. And a country that he and his family can get asylum from.
