I've feared this for a while now. Some senator is gonna sneak it into some bill...some “bridge loan” (never to be paid back) to the NYTimes.
Or maybe they'll call it, “The freedom of the press protection act”.
Frankly I think it will be Schumer or Frank...but it could be Caroline.
I don't believe the Dem party will let the NYTimes go out of business...and they are in charge.
Pinch Sultzburger is in charge of the N.Y. Times. And he will hold on to it until the option is corporate bankruptcy and personal bankruptcy. Then he will sell to Murdock.
If you have observed Democrats you will find they love to spend your money but absolutely hate to spend their own.
Teddy Kennedy has allowed the Kennedy Hyannis Port estate to go into major disrepair as anyone who has visited can tell you. But he makes sure you pay for top maintenance and the finest furniture for his Washington office.
If the Democrats can't find a way to buy it with your money they won't buy it.
