While the FCC has suspended its attempts to invade the sanctity of American newsrooms on the guise of “studying” what information is "critical" for Americans to have, the original idea fit perfectly into the administration’s tactics of power abuse.

 

It can be seen every day how much the administration’s strategy resembles that of Chicago’s political machine, seeking control in a wide range of aspects of life from the economy to employment, wages, national and social security, foreign relations, education, the environment, the military and most blatantly, usurping the nation’s entire health care system.

 

However, while these gains in power have been significant, aided by a fawning, supportive media, trends in news and information delivery are threatened by uncontrollable, popular renegades, such as Fox whose ratings indicate significantly larger viewership than left-leaning competitors. So then, what can the administration do about that?

 

One answer is to infiltrate sources of potentially damaging information, thereby stifling them from the inside, using “study” as the premise for applying pressure and likely, eventually censorship. And, even more frightening, utilizing closely tied allies to accomplish the mission.

 

Which brings us to today’s revelation from Mike Ciandella’s blog on cnsnews.com, as follows:

 

“The controversial "Critical Information Needs" study has George Soros' fingerprints all over it.”

 

Apparently, “Soros' gave more than $52 million to media organizations from 2000-2010. Two schools were working with FCC on the project, according to Byron York of The Washington Examiner. The University of Southern California Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism and the University of Wisconsin-Madison Center for Communication and Democracy, were tasked by the FCC with coming up with criteria for what information is "critical" for Americans to have. The schools involved have strong ties to liberal billionaire George Soros' Open Society Foundations and have gotten more than $1.8 million from it since 2000.”

 

If not suspended, “The FCC study would have covered newspapers, websites, radio and television, according to The Washington Post.”

 

So, like everything else concerning this administration, what’s seen on the surface rarely has anything to do with the façade presented. If you really want to learn the factual truth, ignore the rhetoric and follow the money.

 

That's it for today folks.
