CLOSE READING: The Saudis, A Twitter Investment, And The End Of Arab Spring?

An eye brow raising point of interest.  Ran across this one listening to a guy who administrates the site Whowhatwhy.com.  Prince Al-waleed has purchased $300 billion to get a piece of Twitter.  This is the same guy who purchased a substantial piece of FOX News as well.  Same guy who donated money to the Bush's shortly after 911.  It's all very interesting from a standpoint of contemplating what kind of a vehicle Twitter really is.  This article, at the link below, addresses much of this and the impact on Arab life and oppression in that country.  We may think none of world events affect us but nothing could be further from the truth...  All comments welcome...
