Incestuous Media Breeds An Ignorant Public

Donald E. Graham

Now we know at least one of the reasons why billionaire Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos has been attending Bilderberg with frequency in the past few years.

Bezos just announced his purchase of the Washington Post, long owned by the Graham family. Reuters reported:

Amazon Inc founder Jeff Bezos has agreed to buy the newspaper assets of the Washington Post Co, including its flagship daily, for $250 million.

Washington Post Chairman and Chief Executive Donald E. Graham, whose family owns the paper, said it would be better served with another owner.

Both Jeff Bezos and Donald Graham are frequent attendees at the secretive Bilderberg confab, though it’s not clear if they ever attended simultaneously. As owners of the Washington Post, both Donald and his mother Katherine Graham (now deceased) have been long time attendees and close collaborators in carrying its agenda while maintaining quiet about the influential meeting itself. This is evident in David Rockefeller’s well known quote from 1991 at the Baden, Germany Bilderberg meeting:

Mark Anderson ~ Washington Post Finally Breaks ‘Bilderberg’ Silence After Decades of Censorship

American Free Press | June 8 2012

CHANTILLY, Virginia—The Washington Post—whose top managers have long attended the hyper-exclusive Bilderberg Conferences each year and were thanked by Bilderberg leaders for never reporting on the conference—broke decades of silence and gave a respectable reporton Bilderberg 2012 on the front of its Metro section June 2.

“Henry Kissinger and Bill Gates were chauffeured in.” the story in the  Post noted, adding, “Outside the [security] barriers, dozens of protesters and conspiracy theorists—convinced that Bilderberg is a global cabal [of about 120 key members] that runs the world—waved signs and shouted into bullhorns.”

And while the approximately 626-word Post story downplayed Bilderberg’s power and influence, the clunky article revealed that Washington lobbyist Vin Weber, “who has been a presenter at Bilderberg twice,” is an advisor to GOP Presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

The Post article also acknowledged that Donald E. Graham, the Washington Post Company’s board chairman and chief executive, is “on the invitation list” for Bilderberg 2012. But the fact is that Graham has attended for many years, yet until now there has been no known Post coverage of Bilderberg gatherings.

That the Post was finally covering Bilderberg first became evident when Post photographer Mark Gail showed up near the front gate of the stately Westfields Marriot hotel June 1, to cover what became a four-day demonstration of hundreds of boisterous protesters whose passionate message gave the arriving Bilderberg attendees something to think about—while these pampered plutocrats, as always, holed themselves up in a posh hotel behind a tight security perimeter, complete with armed guards.
