Its okay when you on the side of the bully. Especially when its paying dividends. But when you disagree with Obama, Corporatists on the inside really show you how nasty they can play.

This is just a sign of things to come..

Especially when that huge multinational corporation is General Electric, which itself owns a media company, NBC Universal, and it's using all its power and influence and money to try to harm another media company, Nielsen, and Nielsen Business Media, and its trade publication <EM>The Hollywood Reporter</EM>.
