Chances are you or folks you know have been brainwashed and conned by, arguably, one of the most evil men that walks the earth. Soros is hardcore; a nazi at 12,longtime associate of Francois Genoud, Hitler's and Hitler's ally at the time, Mufti al-Husseini's (leader of the Muslim world) banker.
Since then, Soros — betting against America and making millions by making what he called “a good call against the dollar”; violating the U.N.’s neutrality by funneling money through its Development Program to guilty terror lawyer Lynne Stewart’s defense fund; and was involved via his stooges at America Coming Together in election fraud and, via his investment in WellCare, in Medicare irregularities.
But the most valuable and dangerous currency he traffics in is information/news, or in his case, propaganda.

The pity is that the media is so full of shameless whores willing to sell themselves for crumbs.
Opinion Why Don't We Hear About Soros' Ties to Over 30 Major News Organizations? FOX (hat tip Armaros)
When liberal investor George Soros gave $1.8 million to National Public Radio , it became part of the firestorm of controversy that jeopardized NPR’s federal funding. But that gift only hints at the widespread influence the controversial billionaire has on the mainstream media. Soros, who spent $27 million trying to defeat President Bush in 2004, has ties to more than 30 mainstream news outlets – including The New York Times, Washington Post, the Associated Press, NBC and ABC.
Prominent journalists like ABC’s Christiane Amanpour and former Washington Post editor and now Vice President Len Downie serve on boards of operations that take Soros cash. This despite the Society of Professional Journalists' ethical code stating: “avoid all conflicts real or perceived.”
This information is part of an upcoming report by the Media Research Centers Business & Media Institute which has been looking into George Soros and his influence on the media.
The investigative reporting start-up ProPublica is a prime example. ProPublica, which recently won its second Pulitzer Prize, initially was given millions of dollars from the Sandler Foundation to “strengthen the progressive infrastructure” – “progressive” being the code word for very liberal. In 2010, it also received a two-year contribution of $125,000 each year from the Open Society Foundations. In case you wonder where that money comes from, the OSF website is www.soros.org. It is a network of more than 30 international foundations, mostly funded by Soros, who has contributed more than $8 billion to those efforts.
The ProPublica stories are thoroughly researched by top-notch staffers who used to work at some of the biggest news outlets in the nation. But the topics are almost laughably left-wing. The site’s proud list of “Our Investigations” includes attacks on oil companies, gas companies, the health care industry, for-profit schools and more. More than 100 stories on the latest lefty cause: opposition to drilling for natural gas by hydraulic fracking. Another 100 on the evils of the foreclosure industry.
Throw in a couple investigations making the military look bad and another about prisoners at Guantanamo Bay and you have almost the perfect journalism fantasy – a huge budget, lots of major media partners and a liberal agenda unconstrained by advertising.
One more thing: a 14-person Journalism Advisory Board, stacked with CNN’s David Gergen and representatives from top newspapers, a former publisher of The Wall Street Journal and the editor-in-chief of Simon & Schuster. Several are working journalists, including:
• Jill Abramson, a managing editor of The New York Times;
• Kerry Smith, the senior vice president for editorial quality of ABC News;
• Cynthia A. Tucker, the editor of the editorial page of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
ProPublica is far from the only Soros-funded organization that is stacked with members of the supposedly neutral press.
The Center for Public Integrity is another great example. Its board of directors is filled with working journalists like Amanpour from ABC, right along side blatant liberal media types like Arianna Huffington, of the Huffington Post and now AOL.
Like ProPublica, the CPI board is a veritable Who’s Who of journalism and top media organizations, including:
• Christiane Amanpour – Anchor of ABC’s Sunday morning political affairs program, “This Week with Christiane Amanpour.” A reliable lefty, she has called tax cuts “giveaways,” the Tea Party “extreme,” and Obama “very Reaganesque.”
• Paula Madison – Executive vice president and chief diversity officer for NBC Universal, who leads NBC Universal’s corporate diversity initiatives, spanning all broadcast television, cable, digital, and film properties.
• Matt Thompson – Editorial product manager at National Public Radio and an adjunct faculty member at the prominent Poynter Institute.
Once again, like ProPublica, the center’s investigations are mostly liberal – attacks on the coal industry, payday loans and conservatives like Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour. The Center for Public Integrity is also more open about its politics, including a detailed investigation into conservative funders David and Charles Koch and their “web of influence.”According to the center’s own 990 tax forms, the Open Society Institute gave it $651,650 in 2009 alone.
The well-known Center for Investigative Reporting follows the same template – important journalists on the board and a liberal editorial agenda. Both the board of directors and the advisory board contain journalists from major news outlets. The board features:
• Phil Bronstein (President), San Francisco Chronicle;
• David Boardman, The Seattle Times;
• Len Downie, former Executive Editor of the Washington Post, now VP;
• George Osterkamp, CBS News producer.
Readers of the site are greeted with numerous stories on climate change, illegal immigration and the evils of big companies. It counts among its media partners The Washington Post, Salon, CNN and ABC News. CIR received close to $1 million from Open Society from 2003 to 2008.
Why does it all matter? Journalists, we are constantly told, are neutral in their reporting. In almost the same breath, many bemoan the influence of money in politics. It is a maxim of both the left and many in the media that conservatives are bought and paid for by business interests. Yet where are the concerns about where their money comes from?
Fred Brown, who recently revised the book “Journalism Ethics: A Casebook of Professional Conduct for News Media,” argues journalists need to be “transparent” about their connections and “be up front about your relationship” with those who fund you.
Unfortunately, that rarely happens. While the nonprofits list who sits on their boards, the news outlets they work for make little or no effort to connect those dots. Amanpour’s biography page, for instance, talks about her lengthy career, her time at CNN and her many awards. It makes no mention of her affiliation with the Center for Public Integrity.
If journalists were more up front, they would have to admit numerous uncomfortable connections with groups that push a liberal agenda, many of them funded by the stridently liberal George Soros. So don’t expect that transparency any time soon.

I do a lot of work within a large datacenter facility in New Jersey (this is a hardened, secured facility where many companies place computer servers, storage, and networking equipment– many financial institutions use these locations because of the security and redundancy on power, network connections, etc.).
So when you walk into this place, you see a sign listing the companies who have paid for permanent “emergency” office space- i.e. if there is some disaster that prevents people from using their normal office work location, they can utilize the space at the data center to continue business.
There are only 2 companies listed on the sign as of now- one of them is Soros Group…

let’s just call him either “george tsuris (yiddish for troubles)” or george sorrows.
dangerous guy, how can we stop his hijacking world media for his twisted views?

I have a hunch that Soros is a top contender for ring-leader of a conspiratorial shadow government passing instructions to Obama directly through Valerie Jarret. Do I have any fellow hunch takers?

The so called Main Street Media is nothing of the sort. It has not been mainstream for a long time.
They are dying because people want to know what is going on, but must turn to alternative sources to find it. They don’t want to be lied to, scolded like children by pompous jerks, or lectured to by people who know less than they do.
On-air “reporters” get their talking points on their blackberries from the White House in real time, and dutifully report what they are told. They lie, under report, censor what is really going on, etc. Newspapers and television “news shows” all report the same “news” with the same pejoratives.
These “reporters” belong to organizations such as Center for Public Integrity and Pro Publica and not only neglect to mention their affiliation, they certainly won’t mention Soro’s funding of these organizations.
We must understand that they no longer report the news, nor represent the mainstream in any commonly understood fashion.
The so-called MSM is now properly defined as the:
*** MoP (Ministry of Propaganda) ***
They are no more than that. Goebbels would be proud.
One cannot solve a problem unless the problem is properly defined and stated. Once everyone understands that what you see and hear from the MSM is nothing but propaganda that should be promptly and summarily dismissed, America will be on the road to recovery. I am personally surprised that anyone still watches MSM broadcasts and reads their drivel.

It is actually kinda sad – if Soros can’t control the world with all the money he has then how can anyone?

Pamelaa, George Soros is one of the most evil Jews of the 21st century. He rates right up there with Marx, Lenin, Trotsky and Ethel and Julius Rosenberg. Thank G-d for Jews like you, Pamela.

I’ll second that. It makes complete sense.

Soros’s parents were self-hating Jews…he himself admits this fact very proudly.
He does not deserve to be called a Jew.

WTF? what is this “evil jews” crap? soros is an evil person. period. lenin was not a jew you idiot. if you want to discuss the problems from self-hating jews, then that’s another idea. and non-jews do not have proper credibility to discuss that subject most of the time.
and, even you said that many of the world’s problems came from self-hating jews, that would be jew-hate so check yourself. dolt.

Love the link you give in your post to prove Soros was a Nazi. I hope everyone clicks it: http://mediamatters.org/research/200702050005 Great find!

your ‘evil jews’ comment is so utterly disgusting to me and any decent person. who the ef do you think you are? when you say “evil jews” you are implying that jews are evil or most jews are evil or there are alot of evil jews. yeah, you may say you didn’t mean it that way, you were just putting 2 words together. but i don’t know. it evokes such visceral reactions from one, like me, who is a veteran, unfortunately, of too much jew hate. yeah, you call pamela a ‘good jew’. who the ef are you to determine who is a good jew and who is “evil”. WTF? if you think someone is “evil” just say they are. don’t add their ethnicity thereby implicating the entire group. capiche?

There’s no reason to keep mentioning his religion. This is an evil man, period. I don’t like your little score card of evil Jews and to call Pamela a good Jew is patronising. You may mean well but it doesn’t come across well. And I’m not sure Lenin was a Jew. Lose the score card.

I understand and appreciate all the comments to Bohemond1096. Soros is pure unadulterated evil…whether he’s Jewish or not. But I must say, that as a Jew, it is a double-whammy when a scumbag like Soros or others happen to be “Jewish” by birth. It is also a double-joy when I hear or read of someone like Pamela who is smart AND Jewish. Since so many of my fellow “Jews” are a complete political disgrace, and a sheer embarrassment to Judaism, it warms my soul when I see my Lantzman who “get it”. I don’t think Bohemond meant any harm as I completely agree with his/her last sentence. It does get very disheartening to see so many socialist, liberal, anti-American, anti-Israel scum who happen to be “Jewish” by birth and I so appreciate smart Jews like Pamela.

We often hear about the libel and slander that “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion pose” but i cannot help but think that there is some truth to that infamous publication. George Soros acts like this book was written for him and all about him. His ilk are trying to take over the world, and with the apathy and connivence of America’s Jews he is succeeding.
