Liberal Propaganda

I have two interesting links. The first is just plain hilarious: a verbal bitch slapping the likes of which I have not seen in quite some time.

The next one is a two hour long documentary on the relationship between Israel and the world media and particularly American media.

It's two hours long but it is completely worth it. I urge you to take a couple of hours out of your life to get a much better understanding of the Israel/Palestine conflict.

So is Sky News the Fox News of the British Isles?

George Galloway is hilarious. It really is a shame noone takes him seriously in the UK.

Sky TV, including Sky News: Proprietor = Rupert Murdoch.
Short version: Yes, exactly.

The follow-up question, then, is does US Fox News reflect Murdoch's views, or did he just see a niche that could make him some money and go with it?

He got re-elected after getting booted from Labour.

Murdoch is a card carrying pro-israel, anti-anyone brown, hyper rich conservative who lives on another plane of reality. He's also one of the most corrupt people on the planet. His agenda is to actually turn news into ultra conservative propaganda.

Murdoch would have a GLBT netowrk if it was profitable. Stop confusing greed with politics.

His hearing about corruption in oil-for-food program is something else too. If I remember correctly.

I rather enjoyed that Galloway interview. I'll try and watch the documentary later.

Rubbish. There are plenty of profitable centrist/left-leaning news sources out there and Murdoch owns precisely zero of them. He's also notorious for interfering in editorial and/or making sure "his people" are in the editors seats.
Profit is certainly what drives him, and he knows he'll make more profit with less pesky interference when right-wing governments are in power. And that is the agenda every single one of his news companies peddles.
