The clear agenda is to come out ahead. It is obvious! Do you really think that Fox news gives a fig about being conservative, or that NBC or CNN really cares about liberalism? All it takes is half of a businessman to realize that there are crazy conservatives out there who want to watch TV, and crazy liberals out there who also want TV, and advertising companies who want to sucker all of them into buying As Seen On TV products and Geiko Insurance (which doesn't save folks money).
The ignorant folks fight about the content while the producers rake in the advertising revenue, and the advertisers brainwash TV-numbed consumers. It is all about the money, and TV has been proven to be a good business. The people who make the stuff you see on screen don't care about the content, as long as you watch it and they get paid.
The oldest trick in the book is to first distract your victim with trivialities, and then lift his pocket book. Stupid people fight wars while smart ones profit. Stupid people buy stuff while smart ones profit. We aren't talking about conspiracy. We are talking about economics. It pays to rile people up. The left and the right are identical. The only reason why the two exist and fight each other is because conflict is profitable to mercenary capitalists.
Capitalism in its many forms runs the world, and it always will. The smartest business people will always be at the top of the pyramid, while the people who don't understand business at all will always be at the bottom; but unfortunately for the conspiracy theorists and rabble-rousers, there is no "Illuminati", and Mr. Obama is just another bureaucrat
