Why isn't the media talking about the Mercers?

[SHRED]

I rarely hear them mentioned.
Even with this latest about Cambridge Analytica flare up I heard nothing.

1. That's a very good question...

I wish Rachel would do some reporting on them but she sure has her hands full....

2. The damage that people like the Mercers

and the Koch brothers do, especially since Citizens United, is immeasurable.

3. Don't want to piss off their commercial sponsors?

All those billionaires and the billion-dollar corporations do business with each other. If the Mercer's make news, they get reported on. But I wouldn't expect any commercial station to be proactive about investigating people who can get their friends to yank money away from a network that tries to expose them

6. This is the usual reason.

Goes back to PBS and Archer Daniels Midland and the Andrus Family. Notice that once that documentary was aired,PBS went South in a major way.

Another example was CBS and Dan Rather,Poppy Bush put the hurt on that Gerogie AWOL story and CBS had turned into a empty shell of it's self. Refreshing is more important than the Nation.

4. Why aren't they required to appear before Congress?

5. I was wondering that also.
