Conservatives Who Called Al Jazeera ‘Terror TV’ Now Silent as Qatar Eyes CNN.

For twenty years, conservative media called Al Jazeera “terror TV” because Qatar funded it. They insisted that Qatari money in journalism meant Qatari influence, and Qatari influence meant danger. This was the refrain on Fox News, talk radio, and all across the right-wing blogosphere. A foreign state owning a news outlet was treated not as a story but as a threat.

And now? Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund is reportedly among the investors approached to help finance a takeover bid that includes CNN. Reuters reported that David Ellison’s team explored funding from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE as they assembled the capital stack for the Paramount–Skydance offer. These are not confirmed investments, but the outreach is documented. A foreign state’s sovereign wealth entering an American newsroom should set off the alarms that conservatives spent years building.

Instead, there is silence.

There are several different ways to overthrow a society and a country. One is to outright invade with military force, another is to infiltrate our collages and government with paid actors to change our educational institutes or governmental policy. We see that almost everyday here in the U.S. Qatar and Saudi Arabia have done just that. They are not our friend, they don’t use threats of war, but they silently take over with petro $. Education institutions, governmental subterfuge and now a Qatari investment fund trying to buy CNN? Emphatically NO! We have grown much too close to this terror sponsoring nation in the Middle East. On the bright side, you might not even notice the difference. Just my perspective. Rh

Doha Qatar Conference Speakers

Wonder what the topics will be?? Pure political theatre. Problem is they are the ones determining (they think) the destiny of the world. Wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall? Interesting group though, I am sure deals will be made and agreements will be put into place to rule over the lowly subjects. Rh

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson, Bill Gates, CNN, and Breitbart will all take to the stage at a conference in Doha, Qatar this weekend.

Clinton, Trump Jr., Carlson, and Gates are just a few of the strange bedfellows scheduled to speak at the Doha Forum in Qatar’s capital this upcoming weekend, with other prominent officials and speakers from around the world also flying into Doha for the event.

Seattle Mayor Describes ‘CHAZ’ As A ‘Block Party’, Not ‘An Armed Takeover’

For the life of me I can’t understand what people are thinking.  Wish I  could be mayor of Seattle for a day.  No more occupation.  These people are enemies of the state.

In an interview Thursday night with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan described blocks of Seattle’s streets that have been designated by Antifa the “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” as a “block party,” rather than “an armed takeover.” The Seattle police and local government surrendered the area to Antifa anarchists Wednesday, leading to chaos.    JENNIE TAER.

CNN–Agenda Driven?

Ex-anchor Soledad O’Brien says CNN executive told her to host only the ‘right kind of black person’

Soledad O’Brien tweeted Saturday that a CNN executive had expressed an opinion about a certain individual being the wrong type of black person.

“This is an interesting read. Reminds me of the cnn exec who told me: “Roland Martin isn’t the ‘right kind of’ Black person.” She didn’t want me to book him on my show,” O’Brien tweeted.

“Charles Blow, she told me, (also a frequent guest) was ‘the right kind of Black,’” O’Brien said in another tweet.

Charles Blow, she told me, (also a frequent guest) was ‘the right kind of Black’.

413 people are talking about this

New York Times columnist Charles Blow reacted to O’Brien’s assertions about the alleged comments. “I don’t know how to take this ‘good negro’ talk,” he wrote.

Roland Martin responded with his own allegations about CNN, including that he was cautioned against using the word “bruh.” Martin said he was told to “be careful saying stuff like bruh. We don’t want to scare away white viewers.”

CNN did not immediately return requests for comment from Just the News.

The Press

It is too bad the media is too  concerned with all things Trump to actually do their job.  We pride our self on being a free country and having a free press.  We do not.  Our press in America is nothing more than a mouthpiece for the Socialist Democratic Party.  They know nothing of the truth and constantly push a far left radical agenda that includes government control in all areas of our life.  The media is pro death, (kill the economy, small business, personal freedoms,) and pro slavery (contact tracking, stay at home, wear your mask, wait for the next wave of the virus.)  I like to call them Pravda.  If you don’t know what I mean by that, google the old Soviet Union.

Our media resembles the  media in China and the Old Soviet Union, than America. 

Sad but true!
