Well, What-do-ya-know… This Might Explain That Debate – FOX is Hillary’s 9th Largest Donor

In case you were still scratching your head over that brutal FOX News Republican primary debate there’s this… FOX is the 9th largest Hillary donor. Investment Watchdog reported:

f you were wondering why Brett Baier and Megan Kelly did all they could to kneecap Trump last night, maybe this news will help to explain it.

“According to Federal Election Commission and Center for Responsive Politics data, 21st Century Fox News Corp. has donated more than $3 million to Clinton family accounts. Overall, this lands Fox as the Clinton family’s 9th largest donor over the course of the family’s political involvement.”

Looks like an excellent boycott list.

I find it ironic that Karma has bitten Hillary in the ass. She was on the Watergate investigation(actually thrown off for mis-conduct) where she was persecuting Nixon for erasing the tape..... and now she is guilty of erasing her email server. I see obstruction of justice charges coming soon.

This list is misleading with the title of the article:

please note the chart is “Clinton(s)to all accounts since 1992)

Strange that government agencies are allowed to contribute to specific, albeit communist, politicians.

So, nobody has clean hands? Whatever happened to “Fair and Balanced”?

There is still “One America News Network” (Tomi Lahren is the BEST!) and “NewsMax TV” for those of you who think Fox has drifted into the admittedly powerful gravitational pull of the leftest media.

WTH is Slim Fast doing at #2? They must be a wholly owned subsidiary of a larger conglomerate that wants to hide their donations.

you are all missing the elephant in the room with this chart. Look at the Obama columns and the percentages of colleges (who supposedly don’t have any money) make up 30% of his donations by count and 34% by amount. Government agencies make up 20% of his donations by count and 17% by amount. Leaving 50% of his donations by count and 48% by amount to companies. Colleges and the govt makes up 50% by count and 52% by amount of his donations. What in the hell are universities and government agencies giving money to a political figures? Betting the farm that they don’t give to the republicans, especially at these amounts. Why isn’t anyone questioning those types of donations?

Because Lois Lerner sees nothing wrong and is too busy going after tea party groups...

"Why isn't anyone questioning"

People have.

This info is recycled from 2014, which is now found at a fringe kook website(watchdog blog) and many other fringe kook websites have pick it up and also published it.

They take 21st Century Fox and News Corp and try to make you think that is Fox News.

21st Century Fox holds all of Murdoch's visual assets(including Fox News) and News Corp holds all Murdoch's print assets(including WSJ). Which means, according to this article, that WSJ/Murdoch is blowing the whistle on Fox News/Murdoch.

Then they take "Clinton Family accounts" and try to make you think that is Hillary's campaign money. The Clinton Foundation is a civil society NGO and they get money for purposes just like other NGOs do, such as Red Cross.

Partial List of assets owned by 21st Century Fox

List of assets owned by News Corp

The worst investment Murdoch ever made was when he bought My Space. The second worse investment was when he bought the last 2 seasons Of Glee, the queerest show on TV.
