Bozell: Why Don't Reporters Protest Warren Buffett Owning Newspapers?

Employees of the Los Angeles Times have threatened to walk off the job if Charles and David Koch purchase the newspaper, as has been reported recently.  

Brent Bozell, president of Media Research Center, appeared on The Kudlow Report, Wednesday on CNBC to point out the double standard in the media when outrage is expressed over the politically conservative duo owning the newspaper. 

“If you’re going to say that a known conservative entity like the Koch brothers should not be getting into the business of dictating what a news operation should do, what does that tell you about Warren Buffett?” alluding to the multi-millionaire, Democratic Party supporter and activist who owns many newspaper companies. 

MRC’s NewsBusters points out that Bozell appeared on the program with Steven Pearlstein of the Washington Post, who penned a column headlined “How the L.A. Times can stop the Kochs.”
