I said it was a circus.....hope those protesters feel USED because that's what happened....what a ridiculous thing to get upset about....oh, and didn't it just take attention away from any REAL news/controversy/problems/issues....
Where are all the Faux News worshipers? They seem to be avoiding this thread like the plague...I wonder why?
They're running around with their fingers in their ears going "LA LA LA LA LA!!!" in a feverish rush to find anything to somehow twist this into a blame obama/democrats issue.
I have to go with EVIL, if they were just stupid they would still have mentioned the Princes Name.
So FOX is Funding the Ground Zero Mosque
Waleed owns 7% of Fox. How is this Fox funding the GZ mosque?
Quote:
Cook notes that it was none other than News Corp.'s New York Post that reported on Prince Al-Waleed's donation to Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow. He reports that Fox News had no comment for his article, and emails to the prince's Kingdom Foundation were not returned.

Is this so difficult to understand? If 7% of News Corps profits of $2.5 billion is transferred to Prince Talal, which is in turn used to pay for the community center, it can logically be inferred that money earned by Fox is being transferred to the Park 51 development. In short, Fox is funding the lower "Ground Zero Mosque." Really quite simple.
As for your NY Daily News story, yes they do mention Prince Talal, just in the same manner as Fox and others who wish to demonize evil foreign investors, but I hasten to point out, that the Daily News FAILED to mention is that he is part part owner of News Corp and by way of New Corp, part owner of the Daily News. Funny how that works..

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.
So, are you following the money or putting it into a fund of your choice?

About as much as Fox News follows the money.
The point being made isn't actually that Fox News is funding the Islamic activity center, it's that this sort of reasoning, which Fox has been doing a lot of in this case, is completely moronic.
The fact that Fox and friends got so royally owned at their own game is just icing on the cake.
