Wait, wait, I'm shocked. Dimlib main street media in bed with the rabble rioters? But, I thought the MSM was not biased? Surely fine upstanding news outlets like MSNBC would not be involved in such things?

Well, if Faux isn't behind 'em, If the Koch Bros aren't behind 'em, then it's just plain wrong, Right?

I guess my point is, we'll never know whether anyone at Goldman said 'stay away' or 'do not get involved'. So to suggest it is somehow 'unofficially official' policy is possible...but still a stretch.

We'll never know if Obama was born in the US, by your rules. Several GS employees stating this to journalists is pretty good evidence, and not a stretch. You're the stretch.

This is why you shouldn't read Andrew Breitbart's websites. Look at the names on that list. Dylan Ratigan and Matt Taibbi are political pundits long known to have very similar views to the OWS people. The only other thing that link has is the mere mention of the names of other... you guessed it... opinion people. The only exception to that is Bill Moyers, and the article itself admits that it has no evidence of his involvement. My question would be why you would think political pundits WOULDN'T be on those lists? Would you consider there to be a scandal if Sean Hannity is on a Tea Party mailing list? (he's probably on a bunch).

This is a common deception from Breitbart's sites, btw. They are simply not reputable sources.

Ding. You might also mention that, for example, Sarah Palin has been a pundit on Fox for awhile now. I assume that means she shouldn't be directly involved in any political movements or causes? Pundits are political activists by definition.
