But then if you remember that "Ethical Oil" operation that Levant was associated with also claimed it got no money from the the oil industry, only to finally admit that it did. So the only reason that the Rebel isn't getting more from them is because it's message is so extreme even the oil cowboys are wary of being associated with it...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-33802065809951561732016-03-11T08:11:25.828-05:002016-03-11T08:11:25.828-05:00hi anon...I actually thought of subscribing myself...hi anon...I actually thought of subscribing myself so I can keep on monitoring The Rebel, keep exposing its bigot garbage, and of course counting the death threats it prints, and passing them on to the police....

It couldn't be more of a bush league production, and their hype couldn't be more absurd or fraudulent. Levant has always been a hustler, but The Rebel is designed to milk every dollar out of his legion of suckers. And I must say I too love those who say that rag stands for "truth" in journalism. Although I should say it also makes me feel a little sorry for them, for that too is pathetic...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-25623390205498880832016-03-10T22:29:45.869-05:002016-03-10T22:29:45.869-05:00The interesting thing for me was the realization t...The interesting thing for me was the realization that some wacko dimwit oligarch/elitenumbnuts/davidkoch/climatechangedenier/oilcompany wasn't actually giving Ezra enough to keep him in peanuts and beer, a complete nutritional diet according to the Canada Food Guide for neoliberal conmen mouthpiece commentators.

The so-called defender of free speech cannot have the rubes thinking there is dissention in the ranks. It'll be interesting when the Rebel finally does fold, how old Ezra will spin it and blame the elite media, Trudeau, Notley or whoever else for its demise, much like Sun News. Maybe he'll blame Al Gore, after all, isn't Gore the guy who invented the internet? Surely he has a say in who can have a website. As for their readers, I especially love the ones who write that they look forward to more "truth" in journalism from the only honest media outlet out there.
