I hate conspiracy theories, I really do...growing up in Texas that's all I've heard, "who shot Kennedy," blah, blah, blah. But there's something fishy about the way some media outlets represent the new JFK. Mayber there's a reason...
Both pundits and Kosacks alike have pointed out that John Kerry has benefitted handsomely from positive press by Newsweek on his part and negative press on the part of Howard Dean. Even Dean's cover stories were lame. And recently NW seems to have annointed Mr. Kerry the de facto nominee. Why? The thing is run by a conservative, Donald Graham, son of the late Katherine Graham. Why would they be backing Kerry? Is there a common denominator?
Well, yeah, there is. Put on the tin foil hat: it's called the Bilderberg Group. Here's an objective, conspiracy-free description of it:
"The name "Bilderberg" came from the group's first meeting place, the Hotel de Bilderberg of Oosterbeek, Holland, in May 1954. Over the next 47 years the secret meetings have included most of the top ruling-class players from Western Europe and America. Until he was implicated in the Lockheed bribery scandal in 1976, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands served as chairman. By now Bilderberg is a symbol of world management by Atlanticist elites. Some observers, particularly those on the Right, feel that it borders on the conspiratorial, while the Left is primarily interested in its implications for what they call "power structure research." The Bilderberg participants from the U.S. are almost always members of the Council on Foreign Relations, and since 1973 Japanese elites have been brought into the fold through a third overlapping group, the Trilateral Commission."
Katherine Graham and Donald Graham were/are both regular attendees at Bilderberg, along with folks like Bill Clinton (before he was prez), Tony Blair, (before he was PM), and...John Forbes Kerry.
A recent and rather funny piece on Bilderberg was produced in Britain under the name "The Secret Rulers of the World." The producers interviewed members of Bilderberg and they admitted that they were NOT a global conspiracy but that they try to get very powerful people together in seclusion to find common ground and get them on the same page.
So when is conspiracy not a conspiracy? I don't know! I sit in closed door management meetings all day to come up with a strategy so that senior management approaches the employees with a "single mind." Can we not expect this from government as well?
When a group of people "get on the same page" they might tend to support people who are on that page with them...one of their own. And it looks like for the media outlets associated with Bilderberg, that person is John Forbes Kerry.
