Summary: This clip about the Gates Foundation coincided with an article many people already forgot about; as more of the media receives bribes from the Gates family it is less likely that similar investigations will be initiated by what's left of investigative journalists (expensive endeavour and increasingly rare; Bill Gates also muzzles and spikes articles of his critics, proactively discouraging findings like the above)
