@Meachamus_Prime He's done it abroad- buy & control RW outlets. As boss over guys like Beck/Hannity he can bend the message to whatever his agenda is. This was big enough for the FCC to bypass the usual 6-12 mo process & ignore both monopoly laws & foreign interest in controlling domestic media let alone zero hearings were recommended or held over the transaction. Whether we like him or not is irrelevant- he has amassed his fortune, power & influence in his 93 years for reasons & gets his way.
