Meanwhile the Left is not suspicious of Al Jazeera’s ties or motives.

i wonder why the liberal media isn’t up in arms about the billionaire warren buffet buying up 63 papers in the last 15 months.

That didn’t stop some observers from worrying out loud, particularly on the left, about the political orientation of those papers, particularly their editorial pages.

I worry out loud about the death-grip the far left has on the MSM and pretty much every other institution in this land, and nobody gives a tinker's damn. The Columbia Journalism Review certainly hasn't contacted me about my concerns.

The left-wing pantywaists have/had their views FOISTED on the rest of America for 50+ years and NOW they want to complain about possible bias in the media. God knows it isn’t enough that they get to brainwash children in schools, students in colleges and on PBS, NPR, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN....

I hope the Koch’s fire every one of the leftists. I don’t care if they replace them with conservatives — just as long as they hire people that aren’t cheerleaders for the left.

DISCLAIMER: I work for Charles Koch.
-
I certainly don’t claim to know everything that he knows,
but I struggle to understand how owning a chain of newspapers
creates any long term value.

“We respect the independence of the journalistic institutions referenced in today’s news stories,”

So do I. But, if I were one of the Koch brothers, I'd still take a hatchet to those who have cozied up to socialists and shown absolutely no interest in being independent in the past.

It would seem the liberals who own media are willing let these papers go as they move to the Internet. It would be great if all papers became conservative - then we could listen to the left complain about this while the conservative message is put across.

You can always tell who the stupid, the technology challenged and the low information voters are.

They’re the ones who go out in the morning to grab the dirty waded up roll of paper, with day old news off their driveways every morning.

Does anyone think these papers would become less liberal if they get bought?

I used to be really keen on the Koch brothers. Then I found out they believe sodomites ought to be “married”...

The left should be estatic if the Koch brothers lose a fortune on the acquisition of these papers.

We need to organize demonstrations and letter-writing campaigns in support of the Koch brothers.
