Rev. Sun Myung Moon / Washington Times / Rupert Murdoch/ Fox News and the New York Post /Rush Limbaugh...and plenty of others are all involved in the smearing of Barack Obama
When political bloggers talk about 'influence' they should ponder this:If you’ve ever wondered how agit-propaganda works, you might take a look at the latest case study from the Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s media empire – a bogus story about Barack Obama attending a Muslim “madrassah” when he was six years old, a smear that was then attributed to operatives of Hillary Clinton.
Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs told the Washington Post. “To publish this sort of trash without any documentation is surprising, but for Fox to repeat something so false, not once, but many times is appallingly irresponsible.”
Longtime Washington Times reporter George Archibald recently put Moon’s total investment in the (Washington Times) at over $3 billion since its founding in 1982.That's a lot of clicks on the PayPal button.Though Moon’s finances remain murky, the evidence is overwhelming that he engages in international money-laundering and has been closely tied to major crime syndicates in Asia and South America.
UPDATE: Seems there's nowhere to run to. Now the poor guy is not black enough.
Via Not Saussure, as predicted by Tim Worstall.
