Leaked Audio Proves Mainstream Media Cheers On Trump's Bigotry For Profit
Submitted by Deirdre Fulton via TheAntiMedia.org,
Even as large swaths of the population call for media outlets to do their part in stemming the “dangerous tide of hatred, violence, and suspicion” taking hold in the United States, corporate media - which stands to benefit nicely from the $5 billion 2016 presidential election - is egging on that same divisive rhetoric.
“Go Donald! Keep getting out there!” CBS Corporation chief executive Les Moonves reportedly said during an investor presentation Monday.
Trumpeting the advertising dollars already flowing CBS’s way as a result of the crowded 2016 GOP presidential primary, Moonves said:
“We love having all 16 Republicans candidates throwing crap at each other — it’s great. The more they spend, the better it is for us.”
“And, you know, this is fun, watching this, let them spend money on us, and we love having them in there,” he declared. “We’re looking forward to a very exciting political year in ’16.”
Writing for The Intercept, Lee Fang notes that “[t]he call took place right around the same time Trump announced his intention to bar Muslim immigrants from entering the United States, suggesting the CBS chief didn’t know about that yet.”
However, Fang continues, “Moonves’ remarks came after months of similar rhetoric from Trump, including claims that the Mexican government is sending rapists into the U.S. and statements supporting a registration system for Muslim Americans.”
As Common Dreams and others have reported, media companies are positioned to benefit from the unlimited campaign spending corrupting the U.S. political system. As Moonves said in 2012, “Super PACs may be bad for America, but they’re very good for CBS.”

Politics is professional wrestling for people that believe they're educated. It is the same system. Supposed good guys battling supposed bad guys. No one is going to pay money to see just a bunch of people battling. So you send money and invest emotional capital in your team so they can fend off the evil opponents. The more evil, the more you need to "help", It's a great gig and the Dems and Repubs are laughing all the way to the bank. No one ever complains all of the money spent on Big Politics. How do campaign contributions solve real world problems? It is just another way to suck money out of the system.
Trumps Bigotry... lol.
Where's my safe place!
Why is it considered to be "bigotry" to search Muslims for ISIS involvement? ISIS makes no secret that it claims association with islam exclusively.
Because the dumb fucks who throw around the word "bigorty" have no clue what it means.
The big plans in America are coming undone. Now it's all going a little 'chaos' like! Since so many not in tow of the Rothchilds any more. Because they're not the toughest guy on the block since Russia and China.
A note on this ban Trump petition. I precisely copied the number of the DON'T ban Trump onto my Twitter as 48,244 I believe. Later on (3 hours later) it was at about 24,000.
I screenshot now.
BRINGING MILLIONS OF ILLITERATE MUSLIM REFUGEES TO AMERICA: What's in it for the Taxpayer?
Fuck you and you made up "Bigotry". If just one is a terrorist, what then?
The GOP Establishment is scared to death that Trump will get in. They are all wondering who will hang first when Trump is elected and the Fed is audited? Janet? Bernake? Maybe Hank? Or will it be Jamie and a few of his crony pals? For sure Nancy, Harry, Boehner and maybe W!! If Trump makes it all the way best go long on rope!! If you want to see this country come apart at the seams let something happen to Trump between now and his inauguration! Trump - Cruz 2016!!!
Churchill once said and I am paraphrasing "Americans will always do the right thing but not until after having tried every other single possibility." This was not a compliment.
"Trump's Bigotry" !!!??? The US is de facto at war with Syria. Is it bigoted to say that we should keep out people from a country we're at war with? Call for a stopping of the war, not for bringing in people from Syria.
