What I want is more documentation of whence comes their funding.

It just disgusts me how the Media- news & entertainment- carry the water for these thugs.... while claiming "objectivity!"

Free content is good for business.

From my book:

Given that the ability to gain personal control of commons is based upon the ability to make a political sale, there are several prerequisites:

• A simple justification to maximize the applicability of the claim to individual perceptions and desires.
• A majority perception that acquisition comes at minimal personal cost.
• Collective benefits that are difficult to measure or long deferred.
• Powerful beneficiaries with sufficient personal interest and resources to fund and execute the taking.

Control of communications media to consolidate political forces becomes the means to control the factors of production and key to the control of wealth.

It may disgust you, but now at least you understand the motive.
