Reportedly the Saudis are buying influence in American media. It’s curious what can get shelved when someone else is paying the bills.
“Reportedly the Saudis are buying influence in American media. It’s curious what can get shelved when someone else is paying the bills.”
The Saudis are buying America period. They own 200 billion in T-bills alone. Not to mention all their other investments in American stocks, bonds, corps etc. So, is there any reason we should not believe they are major players/stockholders in MSM controlling what we learn or do not learn about them?

“Libel Suit Leads to Destruction of Books”
Small excerpt:
[A professor at Emory University, who won a libel suit in Britain brought against her and Penguin, Deborah Lipstadt, likewise told The New York Sun that this action by Cambridge University Press was a “frightening development.” She said that it seemed to her that the Saudis were “systematically, case by case, book by book” challenging anything critical of them or anything that linked them to terrorism. She said that she could not think of any publisher that would now accept a manuscript critical of the Saudis. “This affects not only authors but readers,” she said, adding that “ideas are being chased out of the marketplace.”]
