Episode 40: The Miserly, Wicked Servant of the Religious Right/Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad Reach Their Peak, but Old Critics Gather the Smoking Gun Evidence

This episode continues a lengthy series reviewing a key historical section of the founding of conservative Christian media from Dr. Bennett's last book, "Two Masters and Two Gospels, Vol. 1: The Teaching of Jesus Vs. the "Leaven of the Pharisees" in Talk Radio and Cable News," of which more about it and its availability can be found ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. This episode concludes the summary analysis of the chapter documenting the historical founding of wealth-class Religious Right Christian media, by use of the Parable of the Talents to review the biblical roles of government in society, and the miserly and cynical heart of the Religious Right adherent. The "Contemporary Intelligence Briefing Case File" catches up to the zenith of influence of Tim Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad in the summer of 2023, on the heels of their hundreds of millions in windfall profits from their film Sound of Freedom, and also introduces Utah Mormon muckraking journalist Lynn Packer, who paid his career "dues" for confronting the Mormon establishment, and his long lasting suspicions and early findings and concerns about Ballard, including their exploitation of the Elizabeth Smart Foundation. This episode was originally broadcast on WRFN on Nov. 2, 2023. (c) Joseph Michael Bennett 2023
