Leftist Narrative Control: Soros Donations Back ‘Conservative’ Media

Reports have emerged that leftist donors, including those tied to George Soros, are quietly funding conservative-appearing media outlets, raising concerns about manipulation within the conservative movement. Compact magazine, founded by conservative editor Sohrab Ahmari, has received funding from Soros’ Open Society Foundations, leading many to question whether the magazine is genuinely conservative.

Compact promotes conservative values, including support for figures like Viktor Orbán, but the financial backing from Soros has raised suspicions. Critics argue that this funding is part of a larger strategy by leftist elites to manipulate conservative audiences. The fear is that Soros is using his wealth to control the narrative within conservative media, subtly pushing a leftist agenda while maintaining a conservative appearance.

The situation is similar at All Seasons Press, a publisher that has signed major conservative authors. It was revealed that the company is linked to Scott Bessent, a former Soros associate. Conservative author Lee Smith sued the publisher after his book, which criticized globalist elites like Soros, faced suppression attempts. Smith alleged that All Seasons Press was trying to suppress his work, using its conservative branding to hide its true intentions.

These revelations have sparked widespread alarm within the conservative movement. Many now fear that leftist donors are using their financial resources to control conservative platforms, influencing the messaging within conservative outlets in ways that serve leftist goals. Conservatives are now left questioning which media outlets they can trust.
