American Media and its Jewish Owners

Some Muslims love to talk about how the Jews control everything and some other Muslims love to say how this is all a conspiracy theory and that those Muslims just need a scapegoat to complain for their lack in trying to become a powerful in America. Well here is an interesting piece written by a Jew himself, Joel Stein:
How deeply Jewish is Hollywood? When the studio chiefs took out a full-page ad in the Los Angeles Times a few weeks ago to demand that the Screen Actors Guild settle its contract, the open letter was signed by: News Corp. President Peter Chernin (Jewish), Paramount Pictures Chairman Brad Grey (Jewish), Walt Disney Co. Chief Executive Robert Iger (Jewish), Sony Pictures Chairman Michael Lynton (surprise, Dutch Jew), Warner Bros. Chairman Barry Meyer (Jewish), CBS Corp. Chief Executive Leslie Moonves (so Jewish his great uncle was the first prime minister of Israel), MGM Chairman Harry Sloan (Jewish) and NBC Universal Chief Executive Jeff Zucker (mega-Jewish). If either of the Weinstein brothers had signed, this group would have not only the power to shut down all film production but to form a minyan with enough Fiji water on hand to fill a mikvah.

They may not own all of the American media, but they do own a big chunk of it. It would be interesting if some Muslims like Prince Walid bin Talal bought some media networks like he buys Citi.

So what your point?… Honestly, if they really had something against Muslims, things would be much worse. Not only would it be much worse, it would probably be supported by certain other faiths.
So obviously there will be bias against Muslims, which I think is mostly due to greed and ignorance, not necessarily against Islam.
And if we’re going to discuss discrimination against Muslims in a Non-Muslim country, let’s also discuss discrimination against non-Muslims in Muslim countries. How many Jewish media organizations are there in Saudi, Pakistan, Indonesia, etc?…
Pointless controversy if you ask me.
“So I’ve taken it upon myself to re-convince America that Jews run Hollywood by launching a public relations campaign, because that’s what we do best. I’m weighing several slogans, including: “Hollywood: More Jewish than ever!”; “Hollywood: From the people who brought you the Bible”; and “Hollywood: If you enjoy TV and movies, then you probably like Jews after all.” ”
I like this guy!

I love it!
Nice work!
This is to the dude who calls himself DUDE (are you such a coward to hide your name)
I don’t get your ridicolous points about how” if the Jews were anti0muslim it would be worse”.
Do you actually think Jews as dumb as you are, that they will openly advertise they are anti-muslims. How would they sell all the movies then to the several million Muslims who watch Hollywood. Its all about getting down to business with Jews. Do you think they acquired that wealth by justting on there ass all day!! No it was there hard work and business capabilities that makes the most succesfull people.
Just open your eyes. Whenever they put a Muslim figure in the movie its always on the bad side. You must be either blind or so naive to think that to have several Jews in the media has nothing to do with anti-,muslim or PRO-Israel.
Only one movie i can give credit to Hollywood is “Kingdom of Heaven” where the Muslims were portrayed as the good guys.
If you read about the Ottoman Empire you will see that there are more good muslim people that have existed than what CNN and Fox tells you.
Just look at how the American media is reporting (or shall we say not reporting) the Israel led destruction of the Gaza and the killing several civilians (on some cases purposely)
I have no problem talking about facts, but I have a problem when your facts are from CNN/Fox, NYT, Times, etc.
