Is Media Matters breaking the law in its ‘war’ on Fox News? | Mark Tapscott | Beltway Confidential | Washington Examiner
…
Media Matters, the George Soros-backed legion of liberal agit-prop shock troops based in the nation’s capital, has declared war on Fox News, and in the process quite possibly stepped across the line of legality.
David Brock, MM’s founder, was quoted Saturday by Politico promising that his organization is mounting “guerrila warfare and sabotage” against Fox News, which he said “is not a news organization. It is the de facto leader of the GOP, and it is long past time that it is treated as such by the media, elected officials and the public.”
To that end, Brock told Politico that MM will “focus on [News Corp. CEO Rupert] Murdoch and trying to disrupt his commercial interests …” Murdoch is the founder of Fox News and a media titan with newspaper, broadcast, Internet and other media countries around the world.
There is nothing in the Politico article to suggest that Brock, who was paid just under $300,000 in 2009, according to the group’s most recently available tax return, plans to ask the IRS to change his organization’s tax status as a 501(C)(3) tax-exempt educational foundation.

How Government Prolonged the Depression – WSJ.com
…
The goal of the New Deal was to get Americans back to work. But the New Deal didnt restore employment. In fact, there was even less work on average during the New Deal than before FDR took office. Total hours worked per adult, including government employees, were 18% below their 1929 level between 1930-32, but were 23% lower on average during the New Deal 1933-39. Private hours worked were even lower after FDR took office, averaging 27% below their 1929 level, compared to 18% lower between in 1930-32.
Even comparing hours worked at the end of 1930s to those at the beginning of FDRs presidency doesnt paint a picture of recovery. Total hours worked per adult in 1939 remained about 21% below their 1929 level, compared to a decline of 27% in 1933. And it wasnt just work that remained scarce during the New Deal. Per capita consumption did not recover at all, remaining 25% below its trend level throughout the New Deal, and per-capita nonresidential investment averaged about 60% below trend. The Great Depression clearly continued long after FDR took office.

New York Times Admits Glenn Beck Was Right: In Egypt, Muslim Group Takes Lead Role in Post-Mubarak Era
In post-revolutionary Egypt, where hope and confusion collide in the daily struggle to build a new nation, religion has emerged as a powerful political force, following an uprising that was based on secular ideals. The Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist group once banned by the state, is at the forefront, transformed into a tacit partner with the military government that many fear will thwart fundamental changes.

The Erosion of Heterosexuality
…
The forces allied against heterosexuality are formidable and unrelenting. Charges of being “undemocratic,” “cruel and inhuman,” or “irresponsible, homophobic, and prejudiced,” are leveled at those who would question the normality of homosexuality. These accusations are then reinforced by the media and motion pictures, and render the ordinary citizen who disapproves of such practices (as well as faint-hearted members of the psychiatric and psychological professions) mute before their onslaught.
The counteraction for such forces is the knowledge that heterosexuality has self-evident, adaptive value. Man is not only a sexual animal, but a care-bonding, group-bonding, and child-rearing animal. The male female design is taught to the child from birth and culturally ingrained through the marital order. The male female design is thus perpetually maintained and it is only overwhelming fear or man’s false pride and misdirected individual enterprise that can disturb or divert it.
All of this is enough “to make the angels weep.”

Apple Christian Haters Pull Exodus International’s App From iTunes Store
Gays don’t want free speech at all. They just want their speech protected. The Gay movement has become the love-child of mob/union tactics and totalitarian aspiration. Disgusting. I wasn’t even acquainted with Exodus International, now I’m a donor. Thanks gays, for bringing their important work, and trampled rights, to my attention! I’ll spread the word. Gender Dysmorphia (AKA LGBTPDQIRSSOS) has side effects of heterophobia and envy.
“This is not a question of free speech, but of stopping a virulently anti-gay organization from peddling false speech at the expense of vulnerable LGBT youth,” John Becker, Truth Wins Out’s Director of Communications and Development, said in a statement. “Exodus may pose as the victim, but they are a victimizer that has left a trail of shattered lives and broken families. We are grateful that Exodus has lost at least one platform with which to disperse its dangerous message.”
