Not a surprise that liberal Democrat Rockefeller accuses the conservative sites and does not mention that the many of the sites which give news come from a liberal bias. At least on Fox News liberal commentators give their viewpoints and debate occurs between liberals and conservatives. Why has so little recognition been given to the fact that it is more interesting to listen to both points of view? Perhaps that is another reason Fox is successful..different views are heard.

Go figure. Another Rockefeller…wanting to control the news going out to the people. I saw this picture and remember how disturbing it was…even more so now don’t you think?

Why do we care about what Jay Rockefeller says? What is he?

- The inheritor of a fortune he did not earn.

- The beneficiary of the opportunities that money and the subservience of others seeking to gain from the glow of his name and the favors he may choose to bestow.

I recall him being a tall and lanky kid in the halls of the Department of State. Even then, he attracted sycophants like wasps to a candle. I worried if he ever could overcome the presence of the parasitic.

He probably hasn’t. He is still the handsome, opinionated, and over-indulged product that inherited wealth occasionally produces and empowers. The moths are still there, but now there are vultures who have learned to feast on his kill. It is a heavy price to pay for the hand life dealt him.

It will take more than an occasional venting to elevate his present trajectory. He still has time to define his legacy. Waste is not axiomatically in his DNA. He still has promise. In the public arena, his chosen venue of activity, change is in the air.

Opportunity beckons.

The Rockefeller family lost me a quite awhile ago by donating the land to build the United Nations, and all the Communist Carvings all through Rockefeller Square. He just put a nail in his own legacy as the man who attempted to stifle Free Speech.

Senator Jay Rockefeller had a chance to redeem his legacy prior to his comment about news organizations to have open debate, I suppose he is content to have the news slanted to one party.

That family made their fortune in the oil industry and in Silver (until once they had 85% of the oil and gas market) caused Anti-Trust laws to be enacted. Standard Oil was eventually broken up into over 30 companies in 1911, including Conoco, Esso (Exxon), Amaco, Mobil, and so on…is the legacy of John D. Rockefeller, and Jay is named after him as John D “Jay” Rockefeller.

I believe firmly in Capitalism, but do it honestly.

I have no sympathy for the long line of Rockefeller’s’ though-out history, it is the way they each had a part in how they made their money which disturbs me..off the backs of those who trusted them.

[...] he would like to see is dangerous. Rockefeller, like the rest of us, wants to see quality news. But he goes way too far: “I hunger for quality news. I’m tired of the right and the left. There’s a little bug inside [...]

And rockefeller with his hands in the cookiejar and belonging to sinister groups like the CFR and others

The most telling part of his address is the purpose for removing these media entities: to allow the government to act inconspicuously and not be challenged by citizens

Wesley #4 I do believe that those carvings depict men toiling manually,,
before machinery took over.
The land where the UN stands today where slaughter houses & meat packing houses. If the Rock’s ever owned it ,,it was after they bribed some forgotten Pol. into condemming the meat plants & selling it to the Rock’s for 10cents on the $$$. Glen Beck got the Workers ,,,the Mural (which I believe was changed by Nelson R.) & the ownership of the land where Rocky
Center Fella stands wrong. It belong(s)ed to Columbia Univ.back in the 30′s
the land at the old Yankee stad. is also under Columbia (NO TAXES) I believe that the Beckmeister also got Standard oil at RFC wrong. Standard Oil is & always has been at 26 Broadway,,close to Wall St.
“Jay” Rockefeller is the ‘poster boy’ for what NOT to do with your wealth,
inherited or otherwise. This ‘putz’ is a senator from a poor & rural state,
yet he is on the Council for Foreign Relations,,& others I cannot remember
including the “Bildeberger’s”. When 100-200 of the richest & most powerful
people get together in a secluded ‘fort’ of a hotel,,,they are NOT there to play “Texas Hold-em” or even Bridge.
I believe Rockefeller is NOT part of the solution,,he is part of the problem,,,what if FOX was a PRO-Left station?? Not a peep out of W.Va.then.
Any bets????
