Can we trace the ownership of ALL the religious program networks?
They have increased greatly it seems while becoming more and more political in their coverage.

The ones I have seen here in NC are:

EWTN, TBN, FNET, INSP, and 4 others I haven't found a name yet, 2 of them are Christian music networks.

2. Doesn't TBN belong to that creep who just went through a
scandal for being involved in soliciting or having an affair with another man--you know, the creep married to the woman with the pink hair? Whole bunch 'o Christian values goin' on there.

4. Paul Crouch. But, I wonder who seeded his venture in the first place.

3. I Feel Safe in Making this Bet!
Quite a bit of them are owned by Moonies.

5. I'm very curious about EWTN
Supposedly a "Catholic" channel. It's headquartered in Alabama, not exactly what I would consider to be a stronghold of Catholicism. It's VERY political.

6. Yeah, and why I don't think their purpose is spiritual at all.

They are WAY too political.

So are the others. The Christian music network had attractive young people requesting their audience to make sure they voted for a president who shared their Christian values.

We ignore these expanding networks at our own risk.
