As I said in the other thread, Beck should sue the crap out of these guys, as they would do to him at the drop of a hat.

He could easily take several million off of them.  They have announced that they denied someone fair and equitable treatment in a public business dealing, because of their beliefs.

No different than muslims and atheists suing everything that moves for the same supposed reasons.

Limbaugh could have done the same when he was hounded out of NFL ownership for purely racial reasons.

It's high time that we went on the offensive.  I wish I had a nickel for every frivolous liberal accusation, label, and lawsuit, and one for every time conservatives just ho-hum-pass on real mistreatment and cheating, lying, and stealing from us.

We lose to leftists, communists, socialists, atheists, and fanatic terrorists because we can't be bothered to even respond.  Time to change all that.

I know it's probably a lost cause right here and now in DC, but we've got to start at the grassroots level where we can actually be involved.  Lawsuits, boycotts, accusations, lound and proud....it's kicking our asses, 'bout time all these tactics started kicking somebody else's for a change.
Bingo!!!
I hope he can make a case, it would be a Hell of a blow to liberals ideals.

There's 1000 high visibility, liberal leftist crimes out there that can be pursued right now.  Including 5 or 6 perepetrated right out of the White House.

Why they sit ignored, is a grand mystery.  We know the problem with guys like Boehner, McConnel, Roberts, the late great Arlen Sphinter, and so on.

The rest of the GOP and decent, honest tea partiers......WTF is all I can offer.

You know that Obama and Holder sit ready 24/7 to break the law themselves, and to sue whoever they feel is following any law that they don't like.

We can't win if we never even play the game.

I've actually heard some people claim that AJ is actually more credible than anything else in that hemisphere.

But that's a mighty low bar, lol.

And they'll never be rid of the specter of their main man, Baghdad Bob.  As he continually announced that there were no Americans in Iraq, that our stomachs were roasting in hell, with American equipment and men blasting everything in sight behind him.  Announcing the same nonsense right up until they marched up behind him and kicked him in the ass, lol.

I do not think that Baghdad Bob was affiliated with AJ.   During the war I went to their English site and have to say that for the most part their reporting actually was fair and honest.  I think it is sad that I cannot say that about any news agency in the US and find myself watching financial news hoping to get more factual info that you can get anywhere else.   

Is Baghdad Bob any worse than Chris Matthews or some of the others on that network. I do not call that news, I think it is more of a comedy act.  Of course they have a morning show that seems to be OK the few times I listened to it. 

I have heard but have no way of knowing for sure that the news that they report in Arabic is very different than what they report on the English version of their site.  Probably worth checking it out to see what you think and in my mind hearing everyone's views sometimes is beneficial.

lol, I would absolutely compare Baghdad Bob to Chris Matthews.  I've heard the thing where English vs. Arabic languages is a problem.  Though strangely enough, I've also heard that it's a convenient way for Al Jazeerah and other outlets to claim they've said something less inflammatory and/or threatening, than the English translation would appear.  I guess it goes both ways, and is used both ways.

Unless Al Jazeera changes the format it will continue to be a seldom watched cable access network filled with criminals and political has beens.

They will probably tone down the anti-Americanism.... Al Jazeera doesn't hate us as bad as Gore and the freak show on that channel...

It's like, looking back, what was the difference between Obama and Bin Laden?  One was a devout anti-American muslim whose hatred for the United States showed through all his actions and wouldn't stop until we are totally destroyed.

The other was born in Saudi Arabia and orchestrated 9/11.

:lol:

They'll have to tone it down. The network averaged about 42,000 prime-time viewers last quarter, and is only available in about 40 million households.

Last time I looked, they were generating $3mm or so in ad revenue per quarter....  Meanwhile, Beck's Mercury Radio was projected around $80mm for 2012.

Beck probably spends three million a month in operating costs...

Although I loath AlJazeera as Much as I do Al Gore and his phoney Global warming nonsense. I look at it from a different perspective.

Aljazeera is pure Islamofacist propaganda financed by (middle east) Big Oil...which proves what a Hypocrite Al Gore is with his phoney balong war on 'Carbons'

BUT a wise man studies his enemies. Aljazeera gives up a  lot of information during their propaganda broadcast, you can bet US intelligence forces stay tuned to AJ broadcasts on a 24/7 basis, sifting for valuable gems of information, facial recognition and intelligence gaterhing...thats how I look at it...an opportunity to study ones enemy and learn his strengths and weaknesses.

Ok well it's like this, am I the only one in the world who never heard of Current TV. I have Direct TV and don't even know if I get it. :blush: :blush:

I was just reminded this morning that AJ is the mouthpiece for our wartime enemies, as well as the campaign to destroy Israel.

In the past this sale would not be allowed, and it would likely be illegal.

What a brave new world.  American leftists who hate America can sell American assets / outlets to our sworn enemies, and it's A-OK.   Actually, throughout the lexicon of America-sucks-leftism, it's undoubtedly being celebrated as a grand multicultural, anti-colonial revenge.

aljazeera is nothing more than a mouthpiece for terrorists, plain and simple.

Fox News. The Leftoids would rather sell to Al Jazeera rather than to a right winger, and face the possibility of that network becoming popular - like Fox. Two popular right wing networks might draw the attention of businessmen looking for a new opportunity. Without their media near monopoly the Left would definitely go down in flames. Imagine a Presidential news conference not completely filled with media suck ups.

It's funny, this guy Chuck Todd is eerily like Goebells.  He's the face of the actual "commercial" media on White House matters, but he delivers nothing but WH/Obama approved praise for all things leftist, dem, socialist, marxist, and collectivist.

It's a scary picture, the development of a fascist framework.
