"Charles Koch, the chief executive of Koch Industries, and David Koch have long sought to shape political discourse through their support of nonprofit organizations, universities and think tanks. But in its announcement of the deal, Meredith said that the private equity fund, Koch Equity Development, would not have a seat on Meredith’s board of directors and would “have no influence on Meredith’s editorial or managerial operations.”
Proverbs 22:7
"The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender."
"have long sought to shape political discourse through their support of nonprofit organizations, universities and think tanks."
I.E., They pay them to support their already foregone conclusions.
If people really knew what these two were into and what they support they would have a cow.
"But others familiar with the Kochs’ thinking speculated that they could nonetheless use the media properties — which reach millions of online and print readers — to promote their brand of conservatism. The investment would also give the Kochs a way to combine the arsenal of voter information held by a data analytics company controlled by their network, i360, with the publishers’ consumer data."
