Wiki says Journalism is reporting in newspapers, radio, or cable/satellite. It really is funny to me knowing a huge chunk of Fox news is owned by the Arab Bin Laden family. Really cool to know that Arab family is very connected to the most celebrated terrorist America ever sought after.

You who Rachel remember that fella, one of the good fellas huh.

But of course, Osama Bin Laden killed a while back for orchestrating the most spectacular terrorist plot ever conceived on American soil, likely the Plame game with the help of Journalist. Or published video, and journalist written copies of treats to Americans for years.

For all we know very rich Arab extremist have holding secretly through blind trusts or other secret off shore Cayman Island listings. I my last reading the Arabs had hundreds of off shore locations listed next door to Romney’s address, and Bush Cheney “Halibut” connections.

America is waiting for the next MSNBC fatwa, or Imam jihad journalist report by Rachael.
