Their role in shaping public opinion through their media interests, and their mastering of the world of business and trade is pivotal to the world economy. As a group they are the most successful in terms of income and wealth and they have reached the highest echelons or the pinnacle of power in every field. Jews are the masters of Hollywood, they are the masters of all forms of media, radio, and television. They are masters of trade and commerce and banking, medicine, and law. The following lists we believe prove this reality. Jewish Lists The lists below are available on the internet. A spot check of several of the names found it to be generally accurate, though we cannot vouch for ALL of the names, and some titles may be out of date. The second list claims to be updated in 2012.

  • Tuesdays with Rupert
    Rupert Murdoch at News Corporation’s headquarters, in Manhattan, July 18, 2008. Photograph by Annie Leibovitz. Tuesdays with Rupert Since buying The Wall Street Journal, Rupert Murdoch has talked freely with the author about his business, his family, and the future. (There was serious gossip, too.) It’s an unparalleled look at the 77-year-old mogul, transformed by his marriage to Wendi Deng, yet utterly, unapologetically himself. BY MICHAEL WOLFF OCTOBER 2008 F or nine months, I’ve been interviewing Rupert Murdoch, in an unlikely spirit of openness precipitated by his great satisfaction in having bought The Wall Street Journal, about journalism, his business, politics, his family, and the future for a new biography. I was warned about his charm by many other journalists—warned not to fall victim to it. So the surprise was his lack of it. He’s without introspection and self-analysis and doesn’t like to talk about the past. What’s more, he mumbles terribly (and with a heavy Aussie accent) and seldom finishes a sentence. For the first three months of our interviews, he never addressed a word to or even looked at my research assistant, Leela de Kretser, who was at each of the sessions, and ignored her questions—perhaps because it’s not necessary to acknowledge a girl, or possibly because it was embarrassing for him that she was, at the time, a pregnant girl. (She had the baby. He eventually warmed up.) But his odd lack of seductiveness or felicitousness—contributing to his aura of villainy— became after a while alluring in itself.

    _____________________________________________________________________________ Ticket: # 847372 - FOX NEWS Date: 3/4/2016 10:45:56 AM City/State/Zip: Allentown, Pennsylvania 18104 _____________________________________________________________________________ Description Shortly after 3pm on Thurs March 3 a Republican Congressman named Adam Kinzinger made a comment suggesting Mitt Romney perform fellatio on Donald Trump. He was sugges ting Trump had implied this in his speech which could not be more untrue. To make things worse he was not rebuked by the anchor. Two hours later Fox News commentators Greg Gutfeld and Juan Williams repeated this disgusting attempt to defame someone they find unfavorable. These news networks must be held responsible for what goes over their airwaves especially during the day. Many times it is their employees that initiate profanity and vulgarity. _____________________________________________________________________________ Ticket: # 696331 - Fox News Date: 12/7/2015 11:57:16 PM City/State/Zip: Channahon, Illinois 60410 _____________________________________________________________________________ Description I am absolutely disgusted by Fox News allowing two separate talking heads, especially Ralph Peters, to refer to the President of the United States using such vulgar language on the air.
