| Koch Brothers vs NYT |
| 2014-03-08 |
| "Indeed. It is revealing to compare Charles and David Koch with the owners and managers of the New York Times Company. The Koch brothers employ a growing, highly-paid work force of 60,000 in the United States, around one-third of whom are unionized. Koch Industries enjoys excellent relationships with its unions. The New York Times Company, on the other hand, employs a shrinking, largely ill-paid work force, and is embroiled in a long-running feud with its unions. Koch Industries and its subsidiaries produce tangible products that enrich the lives of Americans–among other things, Koch transports and refines oil, makes products that are used in construction, and manufactures a wide array of consumer products that are staples in most American homes. The New York Times Company produces nothing but shoddy left-wing journalism that is of questionable benefit to anyone." |

| #2 I'd like to share my personal experiences with the Kochs: They are major contributors to an institute my father co-founded. They are largely libertarian in outlook. One of the ironies of the hate liberal campaign was watching the LA Slimes workers object to ownership by the "neo-Nazi" Koch Brothers and enthusiasm for Amazon's Jeff Bezos. The Kochs and Jeff Bezos have identical economic views. Among the tragedies of the orchestrated hate campaign are the constant death threats against the brothers, their wives, children and even employees. The companies the Kochs own are forced to hide the identities of their employees so they won't receive threatening phone calls in the middle of the night. Of course threatening children is OK if it furthers a Democrat victory. Florida Al (ex Frozen Al) |

| #1 The New York Times Company produces nothing but shoddy left-wing journalism that is of questionable benefit to anyone." Just make sure to place their product face-down in the birdcage so the birds don't develop a liberal leaning. |
