Barack
Obama's "green-jobs czar," civil rights attorney Van Jones,
co-founder of the African-American political organization
Color of Change, may be trying to remove financial support from Glen Beck's
widely popular TV program. Link to Newsmax: http://www.newsmax.com/headlines/beck_obama_boycott_fox/2009/08/13/247700.html?s=al&promo_code=856B-1
Any successful action such as this could substantially
reduce Beck's influence as a media personality.
Many
people are of the opinion that Obama is trying to eliminate the influence of
conservative media personalities such as Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Glen
Beck by appointing various Czars and heads of Federal agencies that can use
their regulatory power over broadcasters and their influence with corporations
that advertise. This scenario could be presently unfolding. After all, judging
from news content, the major media, with the exception of FOX News and a very
few others, is almost totally under Obama Administration control right now!
News
bias toward liberal causes could be ideologically driven
to some extent but the obvious saturation of liberal talking points connected
with the Tea Party demonstrations and the almost complete absence of media
coverage favorable to the ordinary citizens who show up at these events is
strong evidence that control of the media by liberals and the administration is
alive and well!
The
talk of reinstating the Fairness Doctrine, a practice that in the opinion of
many would eliminate conservative radio talk radio shows such as Limbaugh's and
Hannity's has been passed back and forth in the news and is clearly meant to be
a threat. According to the referenced Newsmax article, Presidential
"green-jobs czar," Van Jones has long been a supporter of the
Fairness Doctrine. When analyzing Obama's appointments many believe they are
too race and left wing oriented and certain individuals have been appointed not
to benefit the American people as a whole but instead to:
1.
Function solely as agents of Obama's radical policies.
2.
Oversee the punishment of those who oppose them.
3.
Transform the United States into a socialist form of government.
4.
Gain total and complete control over the American people and the outcome of
elections.
While
it may be a fact that "to the victor belong the spoils" there are
indications that the Obama Administration has taken this concept and its
associated liabilities, incompetence and corruption, to a more pervasive level.
