That terrible “rigid ideology” of personal and economic freedom. Those ideas have no place in the USSA.
Wouldn’t that be great if they did buy the Tribune? What if they decided to buy the New York Times? There would be two large newspapers for conservative Americans to read.
My contempt for the left seems to grow every day. Public trust? Seriously? Then start reporting like it, and do it now. Respect the conservative viewpoint. Write stories that accurately reflect the conservative point of view. Employ conservative editorial writers and give them prominent positions on the page. End the blackout of reporting on Democrat scandals.
Public trust? My sweet hind end.
Part of me thinks the Koch Brothers are far too shrewd to make such a crappy investment as these dead-tree newspapers. I think they’re just tweaking the Left a bit to cause this freakout.
This is funny but this is exactly the right thing for conservatives to be doing provided they actually start replacing the liberals at these papers. I’ve always been puzzled that the same individuals that can raise billions for political campaigns can’t do the basic thing of buying a stake in the media which will do more to enhance the political position than buying tv ads. Having a media organization constantly making your case is like one endless ad.
Whether they buy any newspaper or not at this point is, IMO, secondary. The mere fact that it is even being discussed is really causing the libs to get their tricots in a real bind and that is worth so much more.
Wish they would show even half as much concern over the Gosnell and Benghazi murders.
I agree but they are leftists. As journalists they should want to cover explosive stories of any type but they wont so we need to make sure the word gets out and keeps getting out.
“Part of me thinks the Koch Brothers are far too shrewd to make such a crappy investment ....”
Fully agree. And I’m likin’ it!
““The Los Angeles Times has a long and respected tradition of community leadership and impartiality, as long as it follows the party line of our dear leader Odumbo”
There, fixed it for them.
What's really hilarious is the liberals are threatening to quit the papers if the Koch brothers buy them! Imagine the time and effort the Koch brothers will save when they don't have to weed them out! :o)
LOL, thanks, that needed fixing!
Hey, wait a minute, didn't you libs tell us over and over again that the Chicago Tribune is a "ultra conservative" newspaper and that having such a "conservative" paper endorse Obama was a major coup and "big upset" for your side because the paper "always" takes "conservative" positions?
If they're ALREADY "conservative", why is your side so upset about the possibility of the paper being bought by conservatives?
I canceled my subscription to the L.A. Times in the early 60s because it was nothing but a mouthpiece for the communist party!
“I believe newspapers are a democrat party trust,”
Translation complete.
ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!
the LATimes has been unreadably biased in its “news” columns, for years.
the quicker it is either taken over and made into a respectable piece of journalism .. the better. Or else, the quicker it is permitted to go bankrupt, so others can enter the marketplace and build respectable newspapers worth reading, the better. (The second approach might be easier...?)
