MRC's Brent Bozell on Foxnews.com: Media Censor Soros Connection to Perry Indictment

August 22nd, 2014 4:53 PM

In the 1990s, conservative efforts to probe the multiplying scandals of Bill and Hillary Clinton were funded by Richard Mellon Scaife, and when Hillary urged the media to expose a "vast right-wing conspiracy," they responded like Pavlov's dogs.

Now MRC president Brent Bozell has a commentary on Foxnews.com pointing out that these same national news outlets are censoring a similar angle on the Left. The outrageous indictment of Texas Gov. Rick Perry came from a complaint filed by a left-wing activist group funded by anti-capitalist billionaire George Soros.

If a group funded by Scaife or the Koch brothers spurred an indictment of a Democrat, “Forests would be slashed to the ground to print the endless string of liberal columns denouncing the evils of conservative money in politics.”

Bozell wrote “I wasn’t in the least bit surprised to learn the Soros machine’s fingerprints were all over this brazen, partisan ploy. It’s what they do.” Read more at Fox News.
