The NewsTrust format and idea are interesting for the possibility of a democraticly influenced news source. It provides another channel for getting news and views out to the public, a channel without a visible filter of the corporate press.

Obstinate fools deny the science of climate change as they work as puppets for big business; then suggest the solution is talking to their imaginary friend in the sky. Ugh. Who elects these people?

Corporations Are Stealing Billions in Tax Breaks, While the Confused, Screwed Citizenry Turn On Each Other
"Corporate governance" acquires a new meaning as corporations are now richer than god and such corporations are bullying governments of nations around the world. Making this official via the TPP would be the coup de gras, with the assassin's axe wielded in part by Obama and his personality cult of sheep.
