MSNBC: Media Sycophants, Not By Coincidence

Posted on | April 18, 2010 | 10 Comments

Jimmie Bise observes the pecuniary motive:

General Electric . . . by some happy coincidence, managed to pay no US taxes this past year despite receiving a $140 billion gift from the administration.

Prompting Jehuda to recall the Corleones:

 “And we have newspaper cable news people on the payroll, don’t we, Tom?”

Ah, but the Corleones had honor. Big difference.

    Wonder how they feel at Goldman this morning?

    Why doesn’t NBC have to disclose the conflict of interest – which is blatant – before every “newscast?”
