I'm having trouble being outraged by a robber-Barron trying to influence American politics by controlling a media outlet, because to do so would imply that that is outside the norm or unusual in some way.
This isn't even recent. We once occupied the Philippines and continue to occupy Guantanamo Bay behind the yellow journalism of rich cunt newspapermen Herst and Pulitzer who were in a competition to out lie each other, that was 1898.
