I think that part is pretty normal, lots of people make deals like that
The crazy part is how he used to call newspapers under false names to talk himself up
Hell, there's a reasonable amount of evidence suggesting that he was never a billionaire (until this year at least), he apparently got on the Forbes list by bugging them until they put him in
the crazy part is that Murdoch and Co.'s grip on america is so strong that he has half the country dancing to his tune, through a combination of stupidity and greed (fox/WSJ/majority of "independent" radio stations etc.)
Well, that parts not crazy, it's just really depressing.
Propaganda works, and we really should have written a few more laws to protect independent media before everything calcified into place
we did have some media-ownership limits couple decades back...
Bush and Clinton got rid of those
hence why people say both parties are the same...neolibs and republicans have always had the same end-goal
Oh... Wow, I really don't hate Clinton enough, he really just cut all the straps holding the country together, huh?
