May a Conservative buy it! May Conservatives buy up all kinds of media avenues. Information is key. If truth gets out the darkness of lies is dispelled.

It’s not his money. It’s the CIA funds he’s spending. He takes a premium to be the front man for the whole affair.

Bezos Amazon has a lucrative contract with the CIA.

It’s a read between the lines sort of thing.

Declaring bankruptcy because of finance or new content?

I read that the US Patent Office gives/sells stolen patents to the military which then sells to insider cronies such as Bill Gates and Zukerberg. (American Intelligence Media—Youtube)

So what has this to do with President Trump?

Follow the bouncing ball and this article gets really interesting.

Gateshouse Media is owned by Fortress Investment Group

Fortress Investment Group was purchased this year by
SoftBank Group.

The head of SoftBank is Mr. Son. You may recall seeing video of Mr.Son and his “friend” Donald Trump in the Trump Tower lobby as they announced a 50 billion dollar commitment to investment in America and American jobs.

Gatehouse Media is 540 local media markets across 36 states.

Sheldon Adelson recently purchased the Las Vegas Review, Nevada’s largest newspaper, and signed a management contract with Gatehouse Media. Adelson put 10 million into the Trump campaign the last two weeks before the election.

I know that the words “media” and “friendly” should not be in the same sentence, but is it possible?

Some liberal media heads are already exploding. They are concerned that these outlets could be used for political purposes and damage the integrity of print media in America.

....and damage the integrity of print media in America.

LOL

Before you go to damage a thing, you must first locate it.

Sorry to hear this. The Herald is pretty conservative, right? What will become of Howie Carr’s column??

The Boston Herald is the ‘conservative’ paper in Boston. I am waiting for the failure of the Globe.

Unfortunate. The Herald was an alternative to the radically liberal globe.

I stopped checking out Drudge because there are so many WaPo and NYTimes articles and you do not know the source until you click on the lead. The WaPo doesn’t care how many people subscribe or pay after five articles. They just want to get their slanted or outright false “news” out there. out there. WaPo, NYTimes and AP are used as “sources” for much reported that is by radio, TV and newspapers all over the country, if not the world.
