Unbelievable. Turned on Fox News to see if they had any news about the launch... they're running a Geraldo rerun, no live news.

Went to CNN International, as they seem to run live news 24/7, or at least most of the time. Christianne Ammanpour (aka The War Slut) and other talking heads are all collectively blaming former President G.W. Bush for this launch. Every other word I hear is "George Bush", "Bush administration", etc.

Sickening... turning it off now. Why is FNC always asleep at the wheel?

I seem to remember that the Saudi’s bought a 20% interest in Murdoch’s media wing. Could they influence things?

All the MSM media was asleep. CNN came on to live well after FReeRepublic had the coverage. Same thing with FOX.
FReeRepublic was first on reporting with gaijin thread. And Cindy’s thread that had been up previous. Drudge didn’t have anything for along time.

I did a little research. A Saudi bought 5.46% interest in
the news service arm. Ever since reading that I have a jaundiced eye towards the news, including Fox. That is why I was not surprised to see that Obama, protrasting himself before the Saudi king was not the lead story on Fox news. Here is a link for the 5.46% purchase info www.freerepublic.com/focus/foxnews/1539210/posts
