Washington Times bought UPI in May, 2000. You are no doubt aware that the Reverend Sun Myung Moon owns the Washington Times. So UPI is part of the Moonie empire. I was not aware of that. Thanks.

Looks like the pro-Israel hawks have a very firm grip on major newspapers and TV stations. I heard at one point CBS was up for sale and a guy approached them with the money they asked. But the guy got turned down because he was not Jewish... Media is vital to a cause, you know.
