LOTFI: Fox News one of Hillary Clinton’s biggest donors for better part of two decades
truth in media ^ | Jul 3, 2014 | Michael Lotfi

To many, it seems contrary to intuition that Fox News could be one of the Clinton family’s largest donors for the better part of two decades. Check your intuition at the door- it’s true. According to Federal Election Commission and Center for Responsive Politics data, 21st Century Fox News Corp. has donated more than $3 million to Clinton family accounts. Overall, this lands Fox as the Clinton family’s 9th largest donor over the course of the family’s political involvement. (Table of Donors)

Broadcast and cable media exist at the pleasure of the government .
So it is no surprise that they support the likely winner.

So did Trump - as he says, when you’re in business you better make friends with everybody.

It’s a protection racket.

Why do you think all the big businesses are pro gay, pro immigrants, pro abortion, pro muslim, etc...

Believe me, they would also be pro-christian and pro conservative if we were a constant pain in their asses.

But, we’d rather be “nice, well mannered” people.

Well that does it for me as far as Fox News goes. Still like Stuart Varney on Fox Business.
I will stick with One America News, I caught their gal Tomi Lahren and she was pretty good and admits she is an upfront Conservative. She could give Megyn Kelly a run for her money easily.

Only because broadcast/print media forgot the 1st Amendment was established specifically to protest their speech FROM the government’s pleasure.

Or they CHOSE to be a tool of it instead. Which is my take.

OK, folks, tell me again why we shouldn’t vote out every single incumbent every time.

But Trump gave her money. How does he answer these charges? Well he says it was to buy access and favours.
Fox gave 30 times as much. Was it for Favors? What kind of favors? What has she promised? Come on Kelly, Wallace, baer, Mordock, Ailes?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Was Trump serious when he said this was the problem?
When he said he gave money to all the candidates on stage at the “debate?

Was he telling the truth about the “system” being f’d up?
What about you GOPe? What about you DNC?

How do you answer these charges Fox?

Weird that obama was bitching about Fox not being in line with his views or something like that.

Are we being tricked into putting down Fox and not just Megyn? The left do play mind games.

The GOP establishment is in a full panic about Trump.the GOP mega-donors have told the other candidates to “take him out:
The big money people have told Rubio and Jeb and some of the others that you’ve got to get rid of Trump tonight. We’re tired of this. We’re getting worried. This is a big distraction. We’re pulling your strings and you take Trump out tonight. That’s the headline. It’s in the DC Whispers Web page…
Remember it was Rupert Murdoch, the owner of FoxNews — and a supporter of illegal alien amnesty

21st Century Fox is not just Fox news, it includes all the entertainment divisions also. Amazing how people are willing to throw anyone under the bus for the great “conservative” trump.
