Saudi Prince Endorses Fox News Dynasty
Filed under Fox News
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal al-Saud of Saudi Arabia, the largest shareholder of News Corp outside the Murdoch family, offered his opinion on Rupert Murdoch’s replacement.
ALWALEED: I met with Mr. Rupert Murdoch and Mr. James Murdoch. We are always in touch. I’m second biggest shareholder there. And no doubt that News Corp is moving on all the fronts. You’ve seen how FOX rating is skyrocketing. … James is now managing Europe and Asia. … I’ll be the first one to nominate him to be the successor of Mr. Rupert Murdoch, god forbid if something happens to him. … I have full confidence in [James], full trust in him, and he’s capable. He’s really Rupert Murdoch in the making, and he’s almost there now.
With the recent Supreme Court ruling, is there is a question of who will be aided by Alwaleed’s financial support? Alwaleed, King Abdullah’s nephew, has been a friend of the Bush family for 30 years, the richest person in Saudi Arabia, the 22nd richest person in the world and he holds large stakes in many American companies, including Citi, who received billions of dollars in bailout money.

See this is where things make no sense and it really be-fuddles me that there is people that tune in to this station and follow the conservative movement in this country.
First of all, Bush and his cronies ran on the “patriotic” theme his whole presidency, used the military as his backdrop and talked about terrorism on a daily basis. But yet, this muslim (which all republicans hate) controls a large portion of the news channel they tune into every day to get their information…………does it make sense? Hell no, but right-wingers never do make any
