The Bizarre Media Blackout Of Hacked George Soros Documents
IBD ^ | 8/18/2016

Posted on 08/19/2016 3:37:14 AM PDT by detective

Scandal: Leaked documents released a few days ago provide juicy insider details of how a fabulously rich businessman has been using his money to influence elections in Europe, underwrite an extremist group, target U.S. citizens who disagreed with him, dictate foreign policy, and try to sway a Supreme Court ruling, among other things. Pretty compelling stuff, right?

Not if it involves leftist billionaire George Soros. In this case, the mainstream press couldn't care less.

On Saturday, a group called DC Leaks posted more than 2,500 documents going back to 2008 that it pilfered from Soros' Open Society Foundations' servers. Since then, the mainstream media have shown zero interest in this gold mine of information.

We couldn't find a single story on the New York Times, CNN, Washington Post, CBS News or other major news sites that even noted the existence of these leaked documents, let alone reported on what's in them.

This is a good example of how corrupt and dishonest the media is.

The media are covering up the Soros leaks that show how much control Soros and a few others have over the Democrat Party. The media are covering up the corruption and influence Soros has.

Really isn’t that bizarre when you realize they are in collusion.

Soros money given to the media ensures the media doesn't talk about Soros money.

"A fabulously rich businessman."

NPR did a hit preemptive hit piece on the Koch brothers yesterday in order to let everybody know how terrible it is that they fund political campaigns, but it was very awkward for the hissing lefties as they also wanted to bash Trump, but since he isn't taking any Kock Bros. money, they sort of just complained that Trump was defective for not being influenced the Koch cash that they so disapprove of.

Soros was never mentioned of course, and that was the point of dragging the Kochs out and saying "Hey guys, look over HERE!"

Our media is concentrated in to few hands. Years ago I ran across a encyclopedia yearbook from right after WW II and saw an article that was worried about this problem because by the war’s end there were only 15 major news gathering companies and it was thought that opposing views were being snuffed out. Now our media is almost totally homogenized with only one view point. Just flip through the channels during the news hour and it’s almost the same story at the same time with the same take, only the readers are different.

Want to know who your rulers are?

Just find out who it is that you can’t criticize.

Bizarre Media Blackout??

How so. Sure, it IS true. But it’s NOT BIZARRE. It’s de rigueur for the MSM and their cow-towing to all things Marxist.

Kudsman: "Really isn’t that bizarre when you realize they are in collusion."

The collusion used to be organized by 'JournalList',
but I have forgotten the new, updated name of this group.
It used to be that Government was afraid of "Deep Throat"
Now, a nickname like that will get you invited into the White house for parties !
This alone signifies how low the ethics of this administration have fallen, and become so Hedonistic.
Investigative journalism is dead !
Now the assigned press and media reporters wait by the White House back door
to be given their hand-delivered pablum of fabricated propaganda

Yep. And applies not just to Soros, but also to GOPe shenanigans. The globalists run the government and the press.

The media is covering up for Soros’ actions, because they really agree with him and support his ideas.

I think they care. They care a LOT. The underlings are probably on orders NOT to report on this or risk their careers. The powers that be are in cahoots with Soros. (See my tagline)

Maybe if they could find some sort of tie-in to Ryan Lochte they’d be interested in covering it.

There is no longer a free press here. The so-called media is the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party. It will only get worse if SWMNBN is selected President. She has already threatened to shut Breibart down.
