Must be nice
Must be nice to be able to legally extort that kind of cash out of someone like that.
The story:
Roger Ailes’ secrets command a heavy price. Last week, the New York Times reported that Fox News had reached an out-of-court settlement with Brian Lewis, the former Roger Ailes aide who was abruptly fired in late July. A Fox News executive with knowledge of the negotiations told Gawker that Lewis was paid approximately $8 million in hush money.
“The big talk at work, especially today, is the settlement number,” the executive said on Friday, explaining that the exact figure had been filtering through the channel’s rank-and-file since early November.
The settlement came after an extraordinary, months-long confrontation during which Fox News accused Ailes’ former right-hand man of vague “financial irregularities,” and Lewis’ attorney angrily responded that Ailes had a lot to lose if Lewis ever spilled the beans on their 17-year-long partnership at the right-wing network.
Sometimes I think John Edwards was right; there are two Americas. The one America, where honest people like myself, could not get a break in the writing world, if I tried. Then, there is the America where shlubs like this guy here, who after being in an position of being trusted by a network; decides to tell what he knows and then makes out like a bandit.
I am not complaining, I could be in a much worse way than I am now. But, it sure does strike me as being asinine. Liberty and Justice for all? it’s more like bribery and extortion for those who decide to take money from the right people.

Best Wishes to Don Rickles
Some sad news to read about, Mr. Warmth is in recovery.
The Story:
Don Rickles is on the mend.
After canceling several shows due to treatment for a leg infection, Page Six has learned the 87-year-old comedy legend was suffering from necrotizing fasciitis, better known as a flesh-eating disease.
Rickles underwent three surgical debridements — a removal of the infected tissue — and a skin graft, which forced him to stay off his feet for a while.
Fortunately, his rep tells us the condition was discovered quickly, Rickles was treated successfully and he’s well on the road to recovery.
“He has been rehabbing the leg, is back on his feet and is doing wonderfully,” the rep said. “He is looking forward to be back on the road after the first of the year.”

I love this man’s style of humor, he is one of the funniest comics out there. Here is his performance from President Ronald Reagan’s second inaugural ball, this my friends; is some seriously funny stuff:
I love that ending, the man is and will ALWAYS be a class act. 🙂 Which, by the way, is lacking in Hollywood and show business today — and that, is class.
This is why I do not trust Al Jazeera as a legit news source
It is because of events like this here:
An Al Jazeera investigative reporter who worked on the network’s high-profile probe into Yasser Arafat’s death was fired last Monday after raising concerns about the objectivity of the network’s Arafat coverage.
Since 2012, Al Jazeera has aggressively promoted the controversial theory that Arafat was assassinated with polonium in 2004 and did not die of natural causes.
Investigative journalist Ken Silverstein, who joined Al Jazeera two months ago and co-wrote the network’s November scoop about a team of Swiss scientists that found unusual traces of polonium-210 in Arafat’s bone samples, was fired after he refused to travel to Paris to cover the pending release of a French laboratory study on Arafat’s bone samples, multiple sources familiar with the situation told the Washington Free Beacon.
The French findings, released the following day, ended up contradicting the assassination theory.
Silverstein declined to provide a comment to the Free Beacon. A spokesperson for Al Jazeera said she could not discuss personnel issues.

It is because Al Jazeera is not a legit news network. But rather an Islamic propaganda network.
Video: Alex Jones on Nelson Mandela
As promised, here is Alex Jones on Nelson Mandela: (Via Alex Jones’s YouTube page)
http://youtu.be/9o0_2nz8Ou0
Two posts regarding Alex Jones pulled
I am watching a Alex Jones video at the moment, and I might post it. Therefore, I am informing my readers of something:
I pulled two postings, one of which where I criticized Alex Jones unfairly, and based on information that, quite frankly, was produced by those who simply hate Jews. For the record, I do not hate Jews at all. I have issues with Zionism, but that does not equate to hate at all.
Quoting myself:
As a Christian man, and as someone who grew up in southwest Detroit in the 1980′s; the idea of a white ruled Nation that basically treated blacks like dirt — like the south did in the 1950′s and how America did, during the days of slavery, makes me want to puke. Sorry, if that offends the white readers of this blog. Sorry, I am just not wired to hate people that look different than me; just not my nature at all. As much as I know that black on white crime is a big problem, as much as I know that communism is a horrible thing, as much as I know that some, not all — blacks do hate white people, which is festered by the leftist mentality. I just cannot and will not hate blacks. I am just not wired that way.
Furthermore, I have stated on this blog more than once, that I simply do not hate the Jewish people. It is time that I put that statement into practice; So, I deleted two postings, that could be interpreted as hateful towards Alex Jones. I might not agree with Alex Jones 100 percent. But, I won’t trash him with videos, made by hateful bigots. It is simply not my nature.
Alex Jones and myself might not agree on the who, what, where and how of the destructive powers of this Country; but when you get right down to it, we do agree on one thing —- that protecting and defending this great Republic of ours is vital to our liberty. For things that I might have said about him in the past, I do apologize to any and all fans of his. I tend to be very skeptical of conspiracy theories and because of that, I did reject Alex Jones outright. Perhaps I was wrong about that.
I will try and do better. 🙂
Audio: David Duke speaks about his being kicked out of Italy.
As you might have read, David Duke, who is a defender of European Nationalism and American Nationalism — was tossed out of Italy for some very stupid reasons. Some would call him a bigot; mostly those on the intolerant left and of the Trotskyite right.
Anyhow, Because this blog is of the conviction that freedom of speech is not, nor should it ever be conditional —- with the exception of speech that promotes violence; I am presenting the podcast of David Duke’s, where he gives his side of the story.
I know all about the Trotskyite right, they have attacked me as well. Most of the so-called “conservative” right, and yes, that does include the blogosphere; is totally Trotskyite, and anyone who does not kiss the royal ring of the Zionists is slapped with the label of racist, bigot, and yes, even the infamous Anti-Semitic label.
Some would say that David Duke’s rhetoric is hateful. My question to you is this, is it anymore hateful that the Jewish rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh, who said that killing a Goyim or non-Jew and taking his liver is perfectly okay?
Anyhow, here David Duke talks about his expulsion from Italy and the media hypocrisy surrounding him and compares it to Nelson Mandela’s kid glove treatment by the media.
Here’s the podcast: (via Grizzom)
[podcast]
Again, I post this, not because I am 100% agreement with David Duke, because I am not much into all the conspiracy stuff and I think that the dogged pursuit of the Zionists is a bit of a fool’s errand. However, I happen to know that powerful interests control the political and financial; and yes, even Hollywood interests in this Country. Yes, most of them are Jewish.
They also hold very influential sway, when it comes to Congress and yes, even the President of the United States. I also happen to know, that the interests of these people are not of a pro-American sort. Most of them are anti-Christian, Anti-White, and very much opposed to any sort of true American freedom. Just look at the Movies that were produced in the 1940’s, 1950’s. They were different. Today’s movies are just not the same anymore. They are produced by multi-national companies that are not pro-american at all.
I pray that you would simply listen to this podcast and listen to what Duke is saying. Because if they are now coming after people, like David Duke; how long will it be, before the governments of the World start coming after Christians, Conservatives, or anyone else, who happens to disagree with these Trotskyite monsters? Answer: It is already happening in some Countries. We have to, as freedom loving Americans prevent that from happening here.
