He’s good at the viral videos that promote you for a very low cost.

It’s not the “gay” part of Milo that bothers me, it’s the pedophile-endorsing part. That is both immoral and a crime.

One of Beck’s biggest business decision mistakes was launching as a premium subscriber-only network. Only later did he realize he needed cable/satellite to have a broad prospective audience.

We won’t discuss some of his political and conspiracy issues.

Well, Rush has explained this several times. Basically, we are back to the 1840s where the political parties actually owned and totally controlled the “newspapers.” NO paper wrote fairly about the other party-—but they were honest enough to have “Arkansas DEMOCRAT” or “Arizona REPUBLICAN” in their mastheads.

I don’t think any of these “news” companies make money, nor do people care if they do. They are organs of the Dem Party-—or, maybe as Rush has been arguing, the Dem Party is an organ of them. Either way, it’s not about the $$ but about the cocktail parties, being cool with your “peers,” being able to go to the right schools, etc.

Oh, please. Scholarly? I’ve seen many of his videos on college campuses and they are amusing and he has said plenty of things that are right. But scholarly?

As my post actually said, "Many of his interviews prior to the Dangerous Faggot Tour of college campuses were quite erudite and even scholarly."

That issue has been done to death on FR previously. Milo does not endorse pedophilia, which is sex with pre-pubescent children. He has denounced it publicly, and explained that his references to his personal experiences took place when he was 17, which is above the age of consent in England (16), and that he used the word “boy” to refer to young persons above the age of consent, and it was misconstrued. You may recall how many old love songs referred to young women as “girls”, but no one leapt to the conclusion that the singers were pedophiles. (”I Want a Girl Just Like the Girl that Married Dear Old Dad”, “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”, “Material Girl”, for instance.)

I think even worse was that he had no real entertainment.

I use Fox (not news) as the model. When they first started they only had programming a couple of nights a week, but it was must-watch-—Married With Children, the Simpsons. Slowly they expanded to 24/7.

I have wondered if the Dems are owned by the MSM also.

Ah. I’d certainly have to check that out. He seems incapable of having a scholarly mind...

Then why is he saying on Facebook this week that the gay super-agent, Sandy Gallin, used Milo’s laptop to order underage male prostitutes? Why did he allow that to happen if he doesn’t endorse underage sex - and is there more to that story? Certainly his many FB fans were startled with this new claim.

I wrote that Ailes was ill because it was said on the radio by Mark Simone and Richard Friedman. The latter worked at Fox and knows Ailes. They did not elaborate.

If so, that is very sad. The man needs intensive therapy. Thanks for the heads up.

He only has $12 million. He’ll be lucky if he can get on going.

I do.

Open your mind a little. God turns all things to His purpose.

I’m so tired of naivete here towards Milo. And thinking he’s somehow turned his life over to God. Yes, especially when Milo’s holding hands with his boyfriend in Key West and Hollywood...

How much have you listened to? How many podcasts? All of us sin. All of us. You know this. The status of his barriers betwixt Milo and Milo’s maker are Milo’s.

It does not change a jot or tittle of the verity of his arguments.

I GET that you know someone by their actions. I’m following his actions, and with respect to his relationships with men, he’s pretty over it at this point. Doesn’t stop him from using it as a point of provocation that keeps the feminist lesbian lobby at bay.

Nothing puts more wear on a person than a homosexual relationship. Massively self-destructive. He’s admitted as much publicly.

You have no clue on his stand on anything cultural or political. Can’t tell you how many companies have folded because upper management didn’t listen to the message because they objected to the font, weight of the paper, margins, etc.

This, of course, is a metaphor - the objection to the message due to the condition of the messenger - is the point.

He’s doing more to defend marriage, men, civil liberty, and our position that education needs a complete redo than all of Congress put together. He’s doing more than Rush, not because Rush is bad at his job. Rush is white, rich, old and conservative.

Milo is gay, Catholic, Jewish, and young. When he knocks liberalism from a position of up high on the pecking order of victimhood, it gets listened to, and responded to.

That’s just modern leftist cultural physics. I think its early to suggest he become Pope. I think he’s perfect at attacking liberalism from within the victimhood paradigm.

In WWII, we were lucky to have the Russians attacking the Germans from another front. Patton knew we would ended up paying the piper, but in 1942 it didn’t matter that they guy in the tank was a Communist.

All that mattered was that his tank, and 6 others, would have the guts to take on a Panzer knowing three of his buddies weren’t going to make it back to barracks.

I don’t see many conservatives throwing themselves at the ramparts at the moment. Sick when a gay man has to stand up for the cultural relevancy of straight men and purely heterosexual marriage (he is vehemently against gay marriage), and does it more effectively than the Church does.
