Replies abound! If you are referring to FOX and you really mean Glenn Beck's TV program migrating from the FOX channel to "The Blaze" Network then you miss the spin entirely. You refer to "FOX" media so that if you add the current FOX network to the lineup then you should know that as a Senior Citizen, #1)I channel surf continually to garner a cross section of what's happening and when I find the most "likely" scenario and possibility of validity, I stick with that channel. #2) I subscribe to both Charter Cable for their TV,phone and Computer network and since they do not provide "THE BLAZE" TV channel....I also subscribe to the DISH Network so that I have access to "THE BLAZE" 24/7! I live in what is described as a "college town" and my local Charter network has a listing of the names of the customers who have called in asking to have "THE BLAZE" added to their programing guide. I was informed, after calling on three occasions in a two month period to check on the status of my request, that I was the first and only name on the list! THE SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH lives on and if the Koch Brothers can deliver it in print, then I'll sign up with them as well. If they make money as a bonus, then good for them! Capitalism at work; makes work and jobs, leading to a healthier economy for all>>> Nothing wrong with that income stream. If they want to put their views in the hands of the public through their corporation(s), the results will reveal success or failure. Isn't that what America is all about? Let's all expand our own sphere of influence and grow this nation back to where it belongs....WE THE PEOPLE!
Did you know that ALEC bills itself off as a not for profit group, and claims to "educate" their (politician) members about legislation and issues. They hold these "educational" meetings a posh resort locations, and foot the bill. They even provide sample legislation for their members. ALEC is funded by very large $-corporations-$ who enjoy the benefits of these seminars ... and all of the money that they feed ALEC comes right back to them in $-big-$ tax savings and extremely "liberal" legislation passed by not so liberal right-wingers.4me49
Democracy is a participative function, and blacks are seeing that they count ... now, more than ever. Women also turned out in large numbers, as did Hispanics and other minority groups. It has become painfully obvious that the GOP-TP/Libertarians are doing all they can to divide us. You know - that Divide and Conquer thing. Wisconsin's Gov. Scott Walker admitted it while speaking, live on camera, to a $$$-supporter-$$$ when she asked if Wisconsin would ever be a Right To Work state. I take it that most of you already know that RTW is yet another right-wing catch phrase that is actually anti-collective bargaining / union / labor, etc.
When I first heard that Coca-Cola was a member of ALEC, I wrote to Customer Relations and explained how disappointed I was.
I must not have been the only one, because before long, it was no longer a member.
Now I sit here happily at my keyboard, with a can of Diet Coke by my side.
When public employees hide or destroy public information they are stealing from taxpayers. Lawmakers craft the legislation that would prosecute public employees who do so. ALEC lobbies the lawmakers. We need to bring this to a higher power.
