Ironic, considering the source.

I didn’t know of the purchase of Breitbart.

Interesting times ahead, folks.

Website Ownership Driving Ideological Content…

Shocking, simply shocking! What does it matter who owns what, if you don't like their message, don't go there. If the Breitbart site stops being appealing to Conservatives someone will start a new site that is. The only thing I see different about a website vs. a newspaper is lower startup cost and faster dissemination otherwise all the same old problems exist with both.

This would only be a problem if any of the blogs or news sites that were pushing anti-Cruz rhetoric, were owned by Donald Trump, or Trump International, or people who support Trump.

If Cruz fanboys & fangirls read 45 websites & blogs per day that claimed to be “conservative” bashing Cruz and his supporters, and read hundreds of comments per day from anti-Cruz pundits who worked for the sites and blogs while claiming to be unbiased, it would be an issue.

Since it’s Trump, it will be treated as a non-issue by the fanboys & fangirls.

They are not part of Breitbart.com. They rely on donations.

At least Mercer’s deal was publicly known, but who realized the EIB Network had become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the GOP?

By the way, I’ve been mentioning the Wilks brothers for the past few days, after digging into their history a bit.

Cruz fanboys & fangirls are in for a big surprise when the left turns their attention to donors like them.

There’s no doubt that Cruz supports their points of view on many issues, since he’s taken $15,000,000 from them.

Who is Jim Robinson? Who is “sundance”? Answer: just a guy who runs a website and accepts donations. Both are a VERY different thing than what this thread is about.

I do my own research, you do yours if you want to know his real name.

Thank God none of these guys has never offered me $11-15 million. I’d hate to die rich.

Actually, Solzhenitsyn warned us in his Harvard Address that ALL our “media” was worse than Pravda-—in 1978. it was worse because the US was actually believing the “news” they were being fed over and over. The Russians expected Lies and misinformation.

Diana West has proven that everything we are taught in schools for the last 70 years is WRONG.

All our information has been controlled since the early 1900s when JP Morgan purchased all the leading APs so that a few elites could control all our perceptions-—get us into wars or whatever.

We have been lied to about EVERYTHING-—unless the truth would lead to the same “perceptions” that the elites were trying to create which is a one world system where there is no individual natural rights from God or private property rights for the masses. They want complete control of the masses.

For instance-—the “Monkey Trials” were a set up-—all Hollywood is a set-up to destroy the Christian Worldview in children. The whole movement has been to flip 2000 years of ethics so that Fichte’s 1810 wet dream could be realized. Education in US was completely taken over by 1930-—textbooks controlled to flip worldview in children-—make good little dependent emasculated socialists.

It is time to wake up-—the pot is almost completely boiling. It is like what Plato said about the Cave——most people will remain too ignorant (brainwashed) to ever come out of the Cave-——they will be completely Mind Controlled by a handful of super elites.

Truth will set you free——find original sources—go with gut instincts. If things go against Laws of Nature or nature’s God you know something is WRONG with it. If it goes against Lockean philosophy/or the New Testament-—or demeans either——something is WRONG with it-—dump it. Raise and educated your OWN children-—don’t give them to perverts to shape and create worldview. so they can actually be critical thinkers (human beings).

The real question is who is Robert Mercer? How is it that he made his fortune? There is also a Mercer foundation which needs sunlight.
