The Origins of Media Matters

Hat Tip to Hot Air for this one. As Bryan Preston over there explains, this comes from audio from Rush's show. It seems that back when Hillary was at the Yearly Kos right here in Chicago, she was bragging about leading the way in creating Media Matters...putting together a network in the blogosphere and a lot of the new progressive infrastructure, institutions that I helped start and support like Media Matters and the Center for American Progress…”Media Matters has denied this
On the July 2 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, RushLimbaugh again falsely accused Media Matters for America of being part of anetwork of "Hillary [Clinton] fundraising groups, or front groups." Limbaugh wasarguing that recent news reports regarding Sen. Barack Obama's (D-IL)fundraising success did not take into account "so many institutions -- MediaMatters for America and all these other little organizations -- that are justextensions of the Clinton that don't count when you start raising money. But howmuch are they worth when all this free publicity and attacks that they dole outon any opponent of Hillary Clinton? So, yeah, if you just look at the money, inone sense, you would conclude that Barack's, you know, doing very well andHillary isn't. But he doesn't have near the organization that she does." Infact, as Media Matters has previously noted in response toLimbaugh's claims, Media Matters is not affiliated with any political party orcandidate.Of course, as Newsbusters notes this denial is not really much of a denial.
In yet another instance of Media Matters making false claims, the left-winggroup has issued several denials that it is tied to Hillary and BillClinton.But in true Clintonian fashion, these denials are hardly that at all. Hereis the phrase that thegroup keeps falling back on:"Media Matters for America is a 'progressive research and informationcenter dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correctingconservative misinformation in the U.S. media.' The Center for American Progressidentifies itself on its website as 'a progressive think-tank dedicated toimproving the lives of Americans through ideas and action.'"Of course this means nothing whatsoever as far as Hillary Clinton goes. Andyet in typical disreputable MM fashion, the far left group has repeatedly referenced it insubsequent articles as a denial of a Clinton connection.Apparently Media Matters can't even quote itself in context!We can't help but wonder how the group tries to spin and distort thisflat-out statement of involvement from Clinton.What no one will deny is that Media Matters operates with a plethora of money that originates with George Soros, but first goes through at least three hands in the political version of laundering the money. John Gotti was successful when he stayed under the radar and the same is true of George Soros, but now, he has found the spotlight all too comfortable and the facade is about to pulled over him.He is an Anti American radical who is looking to buy the next election and then control the Democrats through his power and money. If America doesn't figure out who he is and what he is up to, he may even succeed. Here, again, is O'Reilly's TPM tracing Soros, his money, and his agenda...
“The Factor” has been investigating far left billionaire George Soros, a man who wantsto impose a radical left agenda on America. And under the radar, he is makinggreat progress.Soros has set up a complicated political operation designedto do two things: buy influence among some liberal politicians, and smear peoplewith whom he disagrees.Now here's a chart of how Soros and a few other wealthy radicals who helphim are funneling money into the political process. Stay with me on this. Mostof Soros' political money flows through his Open SocietyInstitute. You see it there on the left, which is almost unlimitedfunding.Since 2001, according to federal documents, the Open Society Institute hasgiven nearly $20 million to the Tides Foundation rightbelow that. An astounding amount.Now Tides, in turn, funnels the money to a variety of radical hatchet menwho are all well paid. For example, Tides has donated millions to the vilepropaganda outfit Media Matters, which specializes in distorting comments madeby politicians, pundits, and media people. Media Matters is an Internet site, butdirectly feeds its propaganda to some mainstream media people including elementsat NBC News, columnist Frank Rich and Paul Krugman at The New York Times, columnist Jonathan Alter at Newsweek, and Bill Moyers at PBS. — In fact,as president of the Shoeman Center Foundation, Moyers oversaw at least a$500,000 transfer of money to Media Matters. — We'll have more on thattomorrow.Now George Soros is also pouring money into the Center for AmericanProgress, run by former Clinton aide John Podesta, and the Democracy AllianceGroup, both of which fund Media Matters as well. So you can see the enormousamount of money this Media Matters has control of.Finally, George Soros has given the radical left organization Move On many,many millions of dollars. — This group actively supports liberal politicianslike Howard Dean and John Edwards. It also organizes demonstrations promotingleft-wing causes.So you can see how powerful this guy Soros has become. He can smear anyonehe wants in a variety of ways. His organizations can raise millions forpoliticians, who will do his bidding. Thus, he can demand that politiciansrunning for office do what he tells them to do.If the liberal politician doesn't toe the Soros line, he or she will bedenied funding and brutally attacked. — Just ask Senator JosephLieberman about what Move On and Media Matters did to him.Now "Talking Points" has reason to believe John Edwards is taking ordersfrom the Soros group right now. And other Democratic politicians may be aswell.The goal of George Soros, Peter Lewis, Suzy Thompkins Buell and otherradical financiers is to buy a presidential election. —By that I mean find andfund a candidate who will tacitly do what he or she is told to do.In the past, big business has been accused of doing just that. Now it isthe likes of George Soros — an extremist who wants open borders, a one worldforeign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia and on and on.My book "Culture Warrior"documents Soros' policy and his tax evading businesses located in Curacao andBermuda.The really frightening thing about all this is that most Americans havenever even heard of George Soros. his is off the chart dangerous, but completelylegal under the McCain-Feingold Act
