#16  Very worrying. I'd put money on it being $0r0$ behind it.

You hit the jackpot. Soros has been funding Media Matters for years though the groups he funds. A few years ago he dropped all pretense and gave $1 million to Media Matters directly. But that is only the tip of the iceberg. The Clinton crony Center for American Progress was instrumental in MM's founding and lavish funding.

If they target individuals, serious consequences will be the order of the day.

#13  The fact that Media Matters wants to harass individual employees of Fox by publishing personal information on them is enough to scare the crap out of me.
The ad-hominem argument sophistry takes a totalitarian turn, aided by the internet.
Perhaps the answer is for journalists to become anonymous, or to only publish collectively.

#12  If you have any doubts about the true political leanings of the Democrats, the tactics of Media Matters is straight from the pages of Lenin's tactics to discredit the Socialist Democrats and the Cadets after 1917.

The Democrats have gone from liberal to totalitarian.

Remember, all of the great and most blood thirsty and most oppressive in the history of the world were all socialist or communist:

Hitler and the National Socialist Party
Mussolini
Lenin and Stalin and the Communists
Pol Pot and his Brand of Communism
Mao and his brand of Communism

At some levels, the Taliban and Al Aqaeda are Communistic.

The fact that Media Matters wants to harass individual employees of Fox by publishing personal information on them is enough to scare the crap out of me. If they can do that to a Fox reporter, what is to stop them from doing it to a conservative teacher or professor or a county employee or even me...if they hack my computer and read some of the things I've said about the left over the years.

This is dangerous and very ominous to me.

#6  Also out of date: the Olin Foundation has been out of business for about five years now, if memory serves. What a bunch of maroons.

#5  Their list is out of date - Glenn Beck hasn't been a Fox personality since September or so.

#3  Interestingly these are the same types of news providers that are under attack here in the U.K.

They're being singled out for "hacking" voice mails, when it's an open secret that other (left-wing) news-papers did it far more, and lefty news-papers are getting a free pass.

Very worrying. I'd put money on it being $0r0$ behind it.
