Status: offline 		Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, who owns 7% of News Corp (the second largest shareholder in the company, behind Murdoch) gave via his personal charity, the Kingdom Foundation, a total of $305,000 to Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow, a group that financially underwrites two of Imam Rauf's organizations, the American Society for Muslim Advancement and the Cordoba Initiative. (the latter one being the mosque in question)

The Daily Show had another segment on it tonight debating whether the people on FOX were evil and purposely not naming Al-Waleed or if they were just too stupid to know whether the person they had been criticizing was one of their bosses.

Well, some are and some are just insane (Beck), but it is too unified of an agenda to not believe that everyone at FOX is told what topics are going to be discussed.

They're waiting for FOX to tell them what they think, but I notice FOX has been curiously silent even though Stewart has been hammering them about the issue.

They have done that before.  Remember "homicide bombers"?  That was directed to the staff.  They also get the RNC (or Bush 43's past) talking points (not limited to Fox News, they also send talking points to conservative talk radio stations.)

Are you fucking kidding me?

It was FOX News themselves that made the claim Al-Waleed was sponsoring a terror mosque, of course without naming him or acknowledging his investment in FOX.

So to appease you, Fox News has to go through the portfolio of EVERY person they broadcast a story about, before they broadcast the story...Brilliant idea, Chief

Once again, the left's rabid hatred for Fox has them jumping at shadows.

p.s. When you have enough money in your piggy bank, you too can invest in Fox News, and actually get a return on your investment, unlike MSNBC.

  If there isnt an ongoing thread about the dangers of FOX NEWS they have to invent one.
