That PoS Newspaper is owned by a Mexican billionaire (Drug Lord?) Carlos Slim.

Doesnt federal law require agents of foreign entities to register and inform the public that they are said agents and therefore untrustworthy? But then, when has the New York Times been trustworthy?

Foreign Agents Registration Act - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Act requires periodic disclosure of all activities and finances by people and organizations that are under foreign control ("agents") of a foreign government, of organizations or of persons outside of the United States ("foreign principal"), if they act "at the order, request, or under the direction or control" of this principal or of persons who are "controlled or subsidized in major part" by this principal.

So has the New York Times been complying with this law?

The fact is there were 50 some odd companies involved in american media back in the 80's. Clinton dergulated the FCC, and now we have 6 major mutlinational corporations controling 90% of what americans are exposed to media wise. Not a good situation.
 
Selling corporate bullshit, deception, division, mind numbing disinformation, and fomenting ignorance, anxiety, fear, and anger - all day, every day. The masses afterall need to be kept bickering amongst themselves so as not to be able to recognize their true oppressor.

Why would you slander this man and imply he is a drug lord?

He's the richest man in the world....he's a brilliant businessman and he began investing at 11 years old...

Carlos Slim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I did not slander Slim, I simply asked a question about him, like he does about other innocent people.

How is that slander?

Sounds more like sauce for the goose.

you put in parenthesis (drug lord?)

WHY would you do that?

IT is a short way of axing the question.

Can you prove that Slim has absolutely no connections to any drug interprises inside a country saturated by the drug industry? I cant, and one cannot be blamed for wondering if there might not be some connections.

Can you prove there is none?

And the main point is that he is a foreign person and the New York Times should have registered as an agent of a foreign person. Have they? Why not?

I see this all the time on here - look, no one can prove a negative.

OF COURSE he has no connections with illegal drugs....he's a brilliant business man and has been a brilliant business man since he was a child.... why would he need to be involved in drug lordship when all of his billions were made ABOVE BOARD AND LEGALLY?

Sorry Jim, that was scummy of you to put that drug lord? comment in your post.... it was WRONG and unjust.

It was a Republican deregulation initiative and created and sponsored by Republicans in the Senate.... it passed with 51 Republican senator votes as Yea and 30 democratic senators as Yea with 16 democratic senators voting Nay and only 2 republicans voting Nay.

It was veto proof by the President....with 81% of the Senate in support.

He's not crazy... he usually tries to listen to reason....sometimes it does take him longer to digest it all....that's all....

Yeah.....he has lucid moments. But then he loses it and posts batshit crazy shit. I've been down that road with him. I suppose you haven't.

My take....he's a nutjob.
 
Can you prove there is any?.

I dont need to any more than the New York Times needs to ahve evidence before they smear Trump.

I am simply asking the question is there a connection.

But more importantly I am asking if the New York Times is registered as being owned by a foreign Person?

I dont think that 'the Republicans did it too' is much of an issue here.

The corporate crony network owns BOTH parties, though the American people may have taken control of the GOP away from them. That remains to be seen.

But the duopoly is owned by the same Masters of the Universe that the media is and they work together to keep the American people asleep, distracted and misinformed.

Is there something crazy about asking questions?

Is there something crazy about asking if the New York Times is registered as the property of a foreign Person as the federal law requires them to be or are they not?
I know that Demoncrats like to slander people who ask questions of their royalty, like the Clintonistas are, but I see nothing wrong with it at all.

If Slim operates in a nation flooded with drug cartels and drug money, then it seems reasonable to me to simply ask if any of his intrepid reporters at the news paper he owns has ever investigatged his drug connections if there are any, much like he is having them investigate warrantless rumors about Trump.
