This is not "personal" between you or me, ok?

Had you spent as many words analyzing and critiquing the
Bloomberg propaganda, THAT would have been interesting.

For instance:

Hindery is Managing Partner of InterMedia Partners,

Who is InterMedia Partners?
He worked for, Tele-Communications, Inc., ATT, Global Crossings, etc
Impressive resume, but how should a "Populist" look at it?
A CEO of multiple global communication corporations... does he have an agenda?

Just saying, question the message AND the messenger, always.
Media Literacy, it's a wonderful thing.
