It is so hypocritical to bitch about George Soros when the right has more than its share of millionaires and billionaires shoving money down its advertising gullet.
…but none of those on the “right” is actively trying to undermine our democracy. This scuzzy interloper Soros has a known history of currency manipulation and is busy setting up more front groups than a boy band promoter.
Bxgrl (like Slopey) does not respond to my point. Name one journalist or columnist who was fired from a right media outlet because of an opinion he expressed.
Both cite C. Buckley as an example. Ridiculous. Buckley was CRITICIZED by many on the right for his disdainful opinion of the Tea Party. Like a petulant child, he couldn’t take the criticism and left (Hey, this was my daddy’s magazine and you have no right to criticize me!). Ann Coulter LEFT NR on her own accord when she was criticized by the editors for the way she wrote some columns.
Someone leaving a media outlet because they don’t like the criticsm leveled at them is world’s away from being fired.
Most billionaires start out on the right but then, once they’ve amassed their fortune, move to the left.
Bxgrl, allow me to jump in. That was my point in posting that article – I read it hoping to hear some juicy details of porn etc. Instead it’s just, I don’t like him, with nothing truly reportable as news. Just her saying he’s messed up in the head. What is that?

The guys who landscaped my yard listened to NPR.
…you sure they weren’t there on a “relief” mission
to Bed-Stuy? They were probably reporters doing a story on the plight of the Ailanthus tree, relegated to inner city backyards.

Ann Coulter was forced out of the National Review?
hummmm, couldn’t have been her million selling books could it?
I’m sure she was just dying to stay on as a 60k a year columnist.
bottom line,
the mainline ABC,NBC,CBS evening news is a dead duck.
they are behind the curve and no matter how many times
they dress up Katie Couric they can’t make her relevant.

“The objection to Thomas was that he brought it to his job and inflicted it on the women who worked with him.”
Well then that’s what the media should have investigated. Instead they dig up some old flame who testifies that – wait for it – he liked big boobs and porn!!!! As I said: what a find!!!”
It was mosre than that- the woman is writing a book about her experience with him- and it supports what Anita Hill testified. Interesting how you attack the women but defend Thomas.
