Hillary's Deals

   Did you know this fact?
   Hillary maneuvered a deal to the Russians while Secretary of State along with Bill? The deal was essentially brokered by Hillary and was run through the Clinton Foundation using Canadian-backed contributions as a cover.
   The deal allowed the Russian’s to maneuver their way into the Continental United States as part of a vast and extensive plan to mine Uranium ore out of states like Wyoming and Oregon.
   According to the New York Times in 2015 “Several leaders of the Canadian mining industry who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.”
   Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
   What exactly do these facts say to you?

      Jackie,
      This says two things:
      A. Hillary cannot be trusted, both as a public official and as a person.
      B. I WILL NOT or any of my family vote for such a double-tongued candidate for the Most-Powerful Office in The World.

                           Of course lesser News channels will say that. All I know is we have four Americans killed in Benghazi and news nowhere was telling us what happened, days and weeks and no word until someone told me about Fox and they told me plenty and still do. They break into any show at the very minute something happens, how can you get any better than that? Facts speak for themselves and I don't need anyone to tell me where to hear it as it happens because I finally know. Too bad you won't know it as fast. Your choice.

                           In order to have a better understanding of what is going on, including the views of the opposition, it's important to have an objective news source plus opinion news from both camps. On TV, Fox News has a right slant and MSNBC has a left one.  Editorial journalism is a good alternative. Keeping a balanced overview, helps make for a more intelligent decision. It's actually rare to agree with a candidate on every single issue.

                        I'm always amazed at how many people don't understand Fox News. It has a successful business strategy of appealing to people's conservative biases, which is why an overwhelming number of viewers are conservative Republicans.
                        
                        Fox is not a news channel that seeks the truth. It provides reporting and commentary about the news with a conservative viewpoint. That's an important difference.
                        
                        Pew Research:
                        
                        "The Fox News audience skews more ideological than that of its two main competitors.
                        
                        "Fully, 60% of Fox News viewers describe themselves as conservative, compared with 23% who say they are moderate and 10% who are liberal, according to a 2012 survey by the Pew Research Center.
                        
                        "By contrast, the ideological makeup of CNN viewers (32% conservative, 30% moderate, 30% liberal) and MSNBC viewers (32% conservative, 23% moderate, 36% liberal) is far more mixed."

         You are correct that she could have sent it to the President as could any of the other on the committee:
         
         "The fact is, Clinton was one of nine voting members on the foreign investments committee, which also includes the secretaries of the Treasury, Defense, Homeland Security, Commerce and Energy, the attorney general, and representatives from two White House offices — the United States Trade Representative and the Office of Science and Technology Policy. (Separately, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission needed to approve (and did approve) the transfer of two uranium recovery licenses as part of the sale.)"

      With all due respect, fact-seekers come from all parties.It has more to do with intelligence than political persuasion. Both sides are equally good at putting up slanted, fear-mongering rubbish. Politicians are basically corrupt, and Mr. Trump is not exactly exuding integrity either. For an ultra-conservative take on his agenda, check out the National Review and find out why many Republicans are bailing from the GOP. We need a real leader instead of delusion behind a monotonous tagline. I honestly can't stomach either candidate, and this is a very sad race indeed.

   Fox news , although obviously right of center , IS the most balanced  in media accuracy and integrity !   Is it my only source   ?    No. but  given the alternatives , it has simply the  most complete covering of  ALL political spin.
