The media is only as liberal as the corporations who OWN them

I posted this, and someone posted this retort.

and

It was soooooo much fun pointing out who OWNS them, but I couldn't find General Electric's campaign contributions. Would anyone be kind enough to point me in the right direction? :hi:

3. The media's job is to keep voters fighting over divisive, polarizing issues while their corporatist
owners pass bills that tighten their strangle hold on the government of We the People and they plunder our economy.

6. What the employees of a corporation do has nothing to do with what the corporation
itself may do...

The management would not necessarily be on the same side as the employees.

I am sure that not every single employee of Rupert Murdoch is a registered, donating repuke.
