How crass can WND get? How about trying to profit off the Israel-Gaza fight?

Yeah, "Get in now while the gettin's good! Sign up to see the bloodshed yourself!"

WND Tries To Profit Off Israel-Hamas Violence
Topic: WorldNetDaily

Leave it to WorldNetDaily to be so amoral and money-grubbing that it would exploit the current violent skirmishes between Israel and Hamas as a money-making opportunity.

WND really did headline a July 20 article "Hamas rockets boon to Israel tour":

The article goes on to present the violence as a reason to sign up for a tour to Israel hosted by WND editor Joseph Farah and WND author Jonathan Cahn:

"During the week Hamas fired thousands of rockets on Israel, interest in WND’s Israel tour with Joseph Farah and Jonathan Cahn spiked, with 68 signups in seven days, the most in a one-week period since registration began in February, WND announced."

I occasionally listen to Coast to Coast AM on the radio and they love World Nut Daily.

Not surprising it's the same station that has 15 hours of Fox hate radio during the day.

The entire corporate media is profiting off the Israel-Gaza fight.

That is what corporate news is, only these WND guys are so damn stupid they don't even try to cover it up.
