In late 2008 and coming into 2009 when all the bailouts were being handed out by Obama and the stimulus was in full swing, the media especially newspapers came with hands extended and palms up asking for a handout. At that moment the AP media which is mostly print media was for sale to the highest bidder and I believe the stimulus bought them somehow.
To this day I know of no accurate accounting for stimulus dollars but one thing is for sure I have never seem the media so owned by one president as they are under Obama.
G.E. has a financial subsidiary. I forget its name. But it was bought/bailed out with TARP money. So Obama owns G.E., which owns NBC and MSNBC, IIRC.
