CBS News has produced a new documentary about oligarchs, which is essentially meant to demonize billionaires, yet somehow they completely failed to mention George Soros, his son Alex, or any of the other billionaires who give cash to Democrats.
On a side note, isn’t it fascinating that Bernie Sanders and AOC have been on a ‘fight the oligarchy’ tour and CBS News just happened to decide to do a documentary about oligarchs? Probably a total coincidence.
Still, you would think they’d at least mention someone like Soros, who has been bankrolling politicians on the left for decades.

WHO’S MISSING? CBS Documentary Decrying Oligarchs Omits Notorious Lefty Billionaires
A CBS News documentary blasted America’s supposed transition to a so-called “Gilded Age” of oligarchs to attack President Trump and the tech leaders who stood with him at his inauguration. As if CBS stood for Channeling Bernie Sanders. The problem: The documentary conveniently excluded any mention about the most notorious left-wing billionaires in U.S. politics that have used their cash to either try to buy elections or drastically overhaul U.S. policy over the years… Kent completely bypassed the ungodly political influence of other lefty billionaire titans who have built empires on the amount of political power they’ve gained during their lengthy careers.
These include George Soros (and now his son Alex by extension) who has spewed $32 billion into his Open Society Foundations to foment racial strife, buoy climate change fanaticism, stoke LGBTQ political furor, push for open borders and undercut American sovereignty on the world stage. In addition, Soros spent hundreds of millions collectively on electing extremist political candidates and soft-on-crime prosecutors in order to shape politics to be the mirror reflection of his unhinged, anti-American worldview. His son Alex, who now controls his father’s empire, openly promotes his enormous political pull with America’s and the world’s most powerful leaders on social media, including Biden.
Other high-profile billionaires missing from the documentary included Michael Bloomberg, who spent over $1 billion trying to buy the 2020 election, pledged another $1 billion at least to wipe out the U.S. coal industry, and spent $47 million during the 2024 election alone to elect Vice President Kamala Harris and help Democrats maintain control over the House; and deranged LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman who spent millions to elect Harris in 2024 and who personally bankrolled the highly politicized sexual abuse lawsuit against Trump brought by leftist E. Jean Carroll.
What this means is that CBS News is not really concerned about ‘oligarchs’ or billionaires in politics. They care about billionaires who don’t think the right way. This is purely an exercise in partisanship and they really think no one sees it. This is why millions of Americans no longer trust the media or even listen to them.
