Diane Sweet, Raw StoryLongtime associates of President George W. Bush are consolidating their hold on American media with a string of recent acquisitions.
Conservative media mogul Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp. earlier this month announced the sale of 8 of its US television stations to a private equity firm — Oak Hill Partners — for an estimated $1.1 billion dollars that is expected to close sometime in 2008.
The deal leaves Murdoch with another 27 television stations in major US cities such as Boston, New York City, and Los Angeles, as well as The New York Post, a controlling interest in British Sky Broadcasting, movie studio 20th Century Fox, and Wall Street Journal publisher Dow Jones & Co Inc.

I’m sure a criminal like George W. Bush has offshore accounts to hide the paper trails. How else could he hide the millions given to him by outfits like Hallibruton and Blackwater ?
Robert Bass is a well-known democrat and only came onboard with Aerion in late 2004. All the Darpa contracts were awared and completed before Robert Bass came onboard. Check the federal campaign contribution disclosure website: http://www.fec.gov/disclosure.shtml
Do a search on individuals and type in Robert Bass and then scroll down to listings in Fort Worth/Keystone Investments/Investor and you’ll see lots of donations to people like Barbara Boxer, John Kerry, and Richard Gephardt, but none for GWB.
Diane Sweet has no credibility.
