Report: Half of staff may quit LA Times if right-wing Koch brothers buy paper

[Missouri_Mike]

Just paying your debts created under Reagan and Bush would be extremely helpful.

And by that I'm sure you meant paying what Obama has tripled in the last four years.

No they should have gone after him for trying to pass off a B.S story about a web video being the reason for the attack and for the security concerns raised by the late ambassador not being addressed and for security in fact being reduced.

The media did go after him for that. But they stopped at declaring him a murderer and the right calls that "left leaning." Why do conservatives always take a winning issue and push it to such an extreme as making it ridiculous?

The media did everything they could to ignore Benghazi or downplay it they only got serious when it reached critical mass and they could no longer blow it off a common theme in their coverage of Obama.

Really? The media tried their best to ignore Benghazi? Because I distinctly remember hearing TONS about it. For weeks, and weeks, and...

To the right everything freaking leans left. I can't stand the Republican party bitching and whining about how unfair the world is to them. I was a Republican my entire life and still hold several of their beliefs but the talking points of the right are so outrageous that I can't believe it sometimes. W. Bush fucked you up. Get over it and make it right. I would love to vote Republican again one day.

Thank you for proving my point.

Your point is that you think media is super biased towards the left. My point is that conservatives bitch waaaay too much about media bias. Go on feeling like a victim if you want to even though the media that you embrace is doing spectacularly well.

Pointing out the painfully obvious is neither bitching nor being a victim....It's just observing the painfully obvious.

Ergo, your point is pointless.

Who is it saying the rich are evil and are making this world a worse off place to live by not paying their fair share? Who is it whining about raising the minimum wage? I mean, serious reality check here, WE aren't the ones begging for more shit. LIBERALS ARE. Liberals incessantly whine about how the world treats them all the time.. oh and I left out OWS.

Quiet you.

Oh.. you wanna play that game huh?

Reagan was 20 years before GWB. Obama is on pace to accrue more debt in five years then either of them put together.

I'm guessing if real journalism standards were to be applied most of those that would quit would be fired anyway. Good luck in your drive up window job at In-N-Out.

But I'll wager you buy many of their products, so they couldn't be all bad.

Fine keep on towing that line and see where it gets you.

Bias is there, you're foolish to ignore it. Oh wait, when it comes to Fox News, you guys are screaming bias; when you have five cable networks that are all left or way left of center.

In a nutshell, get your head out of your backside.

It's "toeing" the line, stupid.

Lakota, you complain about past presidents. Tell me why don't you complain about obama putting my great grand kids in debt?

Oddly I'm good with that. I'm so sick and tired of if you don't suck obama dick you're racist.

Yeah I'm racist I guess, I hate this f*cking piece of sh*t president.

 

[TemplarKormac]

I've always thought it funny that the right thinks there is a media bias despite their beloved Fox News beating everyone in the ratings; and how "openly" partisan conservative radio, the right's preferred method of propaganda, demolishes any type of "openly" progressive media.

The "victim" culture of the right never ceases to amaze.

Your an idiot, if benganzi happened under bush you would still be crapping your pants, and so would the liberal media.

Um 9/11 happened under Bush and the "liberal" media threw their full support behind him. So the media should attack Obama for a terrorist attack on foreign soil that killed 4 people? Very sad but I think the terrorists are to blame and that Obama didn't murder anybody

Thing is, you blamed Bush for it. With Obama.. well, he was busy with something else so we should just "cut him some slack"

Well, yeah, stupid, that's the whole damned problem right there. WE GIVE HIM TOO MUCH OF IT.

Just take a look at Benghazi, sat on his hands and did absolutely nothing while four men were slaughtered in our own embassy. Oh, right, that wasn't Obama's fault, it was Bush's, wasn't it?

Fucking pathetic.

There is no liberal conspiracy. The networks you don't like are simply trying to appeal to the general population.

Fox News and MSNBC are the only networks that are openly partisan.

Quoted from the HuffPost...

To be sure, the Kochs have given "more than a hundred million dollars to right wing causes" (which is their right, by the way). But in the last decade, it's also worth noting the Kochs have given more than $600 million in pledged or donated money to arts, education, and medical research, including (but not limited to):

New York-Presbyterian Hospital Weill Cornell: $15 million

M.D. Anderson Cancer Center: $25 million

The Hospital for Special Surgery: $26 million

Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center: $30 million

Prostate Cancer Foundation: $41 million

Deerfield Academy: $68 million

Lincoln Center's NY State Theater: $100 million

Massachusetts Institute of Technology: $139 million
Here we have civic-minded business leaders engaging in their right to participate in the political process -- and also donating large amounts of wealth to philanthropic causes.

And you do so much for society...
