Fox owned by Islamofascists

I wonder how Fox's rabid right wing would respond if they knew the company was being protected by a fundamentalist Islamic regime. Well, since it's Bush's friends the Saudis, I guess they wouldn't mind.

Prince Alwaleed, president of Kingdom 5KR-62 Ltd. and Kingdom 5KR-63 Ltd., now holds 5.5% of the voting shares of the New York company controlled by Rupert Murdoch.

"We have transferred our stocks from the nonvoting to the voting, and we are all mobilized and ready to increase our stocks whenever the opportunity comes and whenever the situation warrants," Prince Alwaleed said Tuesday in an interview on CNBC. "For example, if we feel that the strategy of Mr. Murdoch and his son and his family is being threatened by any outsider, clearly, this is something we will not accept because we are very happy as shareholders with what Mr. Murdoch is doing."

Yep, both the Saudis and Bush are very happy with what Mr. Murdoch is doing. We are becoming more like the Saudi's every day, with a ruling family (the Bush's) and great wealth concentrated at the very top--and fundamentalist religious laws for everyone at the bottom.
