Benchmark Politics, the oft quoted political site announced yesterday, on Twitter, that they will be joining BNR (Blue Nation Review) as their “expert political analysts on polling and data”.

Why is this of any significance? Take a look at who controls Blue Nation Review in this article by The Huffington Post:

Sale Of Blue Nation Review Gives Hillary Clinton Camp Its Very Own Media Outlet

WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton ally David Brock is acquiring a media outlet, sources involved in the negotiation and sale of the site tell The Huffington Post.

True Blue Media, a newly formed company incorporated by Brock, has acquired progressive news website Blue Nation Review. BNR’s previous owner, MOKO Social Media Limited, will retain a 20 percent stake in the new entity while

Brock will hold the remaining 80 percent equity balance.

On edit: I cross posted to GDP. Even if you don't go there, can you at least go give it a kick or a rec? Thanks. I want to know we are seeing it all. http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511989842

1. more ratfuckers.

Brock has an empire going.

[dchill]

2. I wonder where he gets the moolah...

Don't you?

[HooptieWagon]

4. Maybe he's a 'charity' case?

[djean111]

3. And this will be linked to as "real news".

I am glad I have so many on ignore, so I won't see this utter bullshit.

[dchill]

6. Count on it.

[HooptieWagon]

7. They're no different than Fox News....

...which means there'll be no shortage of gullible stupid people thinking it's really news, instead of propaganda. They'll even be posting little blue links to it on DU...

8. Just trying to bring some balance to DU. It was posted in direct response to a post

coming from the cave.

5. And here are the types of stories you'll get. It's FOX NEWS all over again.

As Door Closes on His Campaign, Bernie Delivers Angry Speech Attacking Democratic Party
Blue Nation Review? - 6 hours ago
Bernie will not be the Democratic nominee. He knows it. His campaign knows it. But he's clinging to his moment in the spotlight. That moment ...

Bernie Sanders Walks Away from Question About Chaos at NV Convention
Blue Nation Review? - 16 hours ago

9. I fear for the safety of social media these days. It's certainly the next target for corporate media

If they could some how take control of that...

Then they can spoon - fed us the narrative they want.
That shit scary, yo.

10. That's what the Net Neutrality fight is about and probably parts of the TPP too (can't

remember offhand, but I know significant parts of it were written by Comcast.)

[glinda]

11. HRC also I think.....at least a huge supporter of the TPP. Funny how

this is all coming together. Comcast putting on the Dem Convention also....

[silvershadow]

13. They paid good money to get this thing done, and dammit they're getting what they

paid for.

[Lodestar]

12. This speaks volumes about Hillary. She is more than willing to spin lies.

And of course that is nothing new, but for anyone still on the fence
it sure makes things crystal clear.
Absolutely NO integrity or penchant for truth.
