Media Silence Explained?: Soros Fingerprints On FCC Newsroom Probe

The real mystery behind the FCC's now abandoned "study" to police American newsrooms is why the mainstream media refused to raise holy hell over it. While Obama's lapdogs refused to bark, it was conservative media who fought for newsroom independence and got the FCC to finally back down. Other than the media's natural obedience to Obama, the fact that the fingerprints of left-wing billionaire George Soros have been found on the FCC study might also help to explain the media's silence.

The media's hands-off policy with Soros is nothing new. While outlets such as Politico and NBC News obsess over every move made by the libertarian Koch brothers, Soros and his spider-web of influential left-wing political operations {http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/viewSubCategory.asp?id=1237} (Media Matters, Center for American Progress) almost never receive any kind of media scrutiny. A recent media study(http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journa...mbers-Expose-Media-Bias-Against-Koch-Brothers) found that the ratio of references between Kochs' organizations and Soros' organizations, in news outlets that pose as objective, are literally hundreds to one. Politico actually has Ken Vogel, a former Soros employee, (constantly harassing) covering the Koch brothers.

...

The mainstream media not only shares Soros' hard-left vision, but also benefits or hopes to benefit from Soros' bottomless billionaire well of funding. And in return, even though Soros' Tides Foundation is many times larger than the Kochs, the media look the other way for Soros and turn the Kochs into America's bogeyman. Which brings me back to the FCC proposal to police America's newsrooms.

One has to wonder why two schools tied to Soros funding were tasked by the FCC with coming up with criteria for what information is "critical" for Americans to have. The FCC study would have covered newspapers, websites, radio and television, according to The Washington Post. Why would the media be so silent about this apparent assault on America's freedoms? Could they also be paid co-conspirators of George Soros?
