Neither UPI nor AP are Saudi owned. See below.

UPI now owned by Moonies.

From the AP FAQ:

1. Who owns The Associated Press?

The Associated Press is a not-for-profit cooperative, which means it is owned by its 1,550 U.S. daily newspaper members. They elect a board of directors that directs the cooperative.

Neither UPI nor AP are Saudi owned... UPI now owned by Moonies.

Even if they were owned by the Saudis, this would not in any sense imply that they have a pro-Saudi bias. Anymore than these facts imply that UPI has a pro-Moonie bias.

The rest of JMJ333's delirium is equally hallucinatory. Lemmee see if I can follow it. The government of the Sudanese has murdered hundreds of thousands of Christians and animists. JMJ thinks that this is underreported by the press. Perhaps it is, although I have certainly seen plenty of coverage. Even so, what on earth does this have to do with Jews? Is the connection that the Sudan, like Israel, is a theocracy?

Fine. But UPI was owned by the Saudi's until recently, and the Saudis contribute TO and bankroll much of AP. I have an article by AP'S Anthony Shadid out of Nicosia Cyprus which talks about Saudi influence at AP. But... I'm sure you think its all a Jewish conspiracy. Don't you? They cause all of life's problems--including when you get a hang nail.
