A PhD student who shot and killed a professor before killing himself claimed that the professor had stolen his code:
The student who shot and killed his engineering professor and then himself at a Los Angeles university had accused the professor of stealing his code.
In a blog post on March 10, Mainak Sarkar, 38, said Professor William Klug, 39, "is not the kind of person when you think of a professor. He is a very sick person. I urge every new student coming to UCLA to stay away from this guy." He continued: "I was this guy's PhD student. We had personal differences. He cleverly stole all my code and gave it another student. He made me really sick. Your enemy is your enemy. But your friend can do a lot more harm. Be careful about whom you trust. Stay away from this sick guy." The post has since been taken down.
On Wednesday, nearly three months after posting it, and seemingly upset at poor grades, Sarkar drove from his home in Minnesota to Los Angeles where he confronted and gunned down Professor Klug at the university's engineering complex. Sarkar then turned the gun on himself and killed himself. The Los Angeles Times quoted an unnamed UCLA source as saying the allegation that Klug stole his student's code was "absolutely untrue."
The professor's name was found on a "kill list" written by Sarkar, along with another professor who wasn't on campus at the time of the shooting and has been confirmed to be safe. Sarkar reportedly killed his estranged wife in Minnesota before traveling to UCLA. Also at Los Angeles Times , The New York Times , CNN.

Fox news is primarily financed by a shit load of Islamic investors from oil rich middle east nations.
Can you say, "Controlled Opposition"? How about "Noob"? Because you are one.

Nope. I'm just a guy who watches fox news a lot and they never miss a chance to connect the dots.
Go ahead, prove me wrong. Lets see one case where a muslim was involved in a crime and fox didn't make sure we all knew he was a muslim.

It isn't just that. Nobody wants to really stir em up at FNC. Hannity is pretty much the only one left that even tries and it is clear they have him on a choker chain and keep it yanked pretty tight. Beyond the Saudi investors basic fear does the job of silencing people.
Glenn Beck's book "It is about Islam" is notable. Like most folks like him, most his stuff is mostly created by a staff of writers, researchers, etc. Except that book. He was clear in discussing the issue, that he wasn't bogarting all of the credit. All of the other books appearing under his name list all of the other contributors but every one of the people who worked on that book asked to have their name deleted for personal security reasons. Mark Steyn notes that when they celebrate anniversaries of certain 'free speech' events (hint: Religion of Peace involved) it often is down to him and some other guy.., everyone else from the original event either being dead or in hiding.
