If McGraw-Hill owns S&P and Rupert Murdoch owns McGraw-Hill, then indirectly, Rupert Murdoch downgraded America's credit rating. Now we see the connection between the Republican-manufactured debt ceiling crisis, the downgrade and their hopes that President Obama fails!

1. McGraw-Hill is a publicly traded company

4. I wouldn't put it past Murdoch.

[Maraya1969]

8. Just because it is publicly traded doesn't mean a few people don't

have the ability to manipulate it does it?

McGraw, Murphy, Bahash, Vittor and Teschner. I'm sure there's nothing to see here. Move along

2. I think this "recession" is being induced by those who want a new president.

18. +++

I think there are many investors out there who don't want to turn loose of any more funds until they're assured that they won't have to pay any more taxes. There are a relative few people sitting on a mountain of money and they've got us all by the balls.

3. OH GIVE ME A BREAK, If this is true then Murdoch owns and controls the fucking galaxy.

I am very curious to know if this is actually true, I have a hard time believing it.

[RB TexLa]

10. That just tells you the investors of Mc Graw Hill

12. Is Rupert Murdoch (or any of his companies) a major holder?

If McGraw-Hill owns S&P and Rupert Murdoch owns McGraw-Hill, then indirectly, Rupert Murdoch downgraded America's credit rating.

 

[IScreamSundays]

[Make7]

[Maraya1969]
