I think you massively oversimplify the issue by using a single sentence and words like "brainwashed" and "fake news". The research I've done leads me to the conclusion that this and the Panama Papers is the global elite fighting with each other. This definitely appears to be a managed leak as apposed to independent people just trying to stand up for what's right. I have to admit the Great Britain and other EU nations seem to be much more experienced in deceiving experienced people than the U.S. is. When I see the U.K. doing questionable news stories, I usually am compelled to research further and further & often get lost in the maze of directions it leads. When the U.S. do this, it often takes lass than 15 minutes to find the numerous connections to the rogue elements in our non-military intelligence agencies and the usual suspects in the private sector. Britannia has a few centuries more experience in hiding things from it's people and it shows, they are much better at it than the U.S. is. I don't have time to get into this thing extensively since I don't do this stuff for a living but do be perfectly candid, I still try to look at all these "tax cheats" as individuals. I don't really care if people find loopholes in tax laws because I'm very anarcho-capitalist. At the same time, I'm very anti-fascist, in that, if someone gets special treatment from a government, which benefits them financially, I still consider them as owing a debt to the society in which that government resides. So I would look upon how much they pay, much more critically. In case this is confusing, to elaborate on my interpretation of "fascism", Mussolini once described fascism as "corporatism" which is what we refer to today as crony-capitalism.

at least one journalist was killed - by a car bomb. her name was Daphne Caruana Galizia

I'm disheartened by the comments below, because it shows how little faith and stock people put in investigative journalism nowadays. I'm thoroughly impressed by their commitment to privacy and security. They are dedicated to this work and thoroughly picking through the garbage of the financial records, seeing which leads appear fresh at first sniff, and then really picking up the stench of criminality and corruption in others. They don't release raw data directly for the protection of those not implicated in criminal ties. They confirm and corroborate with foreign journalists to gain insight and ensure accuracy. They announce their findings to the parties in question before publication to make them aware of the investigation. These are all the admirable qualities of ethical journalists, not hackneyed bloggers and opinionists who come up with a narrative first and then see what cherry-picked data fits their picture. They have picked up on some very large corporations doing some very questionable things with vast sums of money, and while it seems convenient to pick them out, it's what gives the reader a tangible, identifiable entity to read about. I don't know who the Russian oligarchs are, or the Saudi investors in the Clintons and Bushes, or what the former prime minister of Iceland did while in office, but I can definitely see the harm in companies like Facebook, Google and Apple accepting investments from shell companies owned by authoritarian regimes. We all want greater transparency in government and bank lending. We would all like to know that our leaders and elected officials and even our entertainment stars are working effectively and ethically to prevent abuses to our global finances. Yet here I am reading multiple comments applauding these leeches for successfully avoiding to pay their fair share. That their selfishness and greed are models to be replicated, when the reality is, there's no way any one of us would ever amalgamate that level of wealth that they stash away, and that's entirely the point. We're looking into the pocket books of the 0.001% of the world's population, and it's that small inner sanctum that they wish to preserve while keeping all others out. But they create this illusion that one day, by "hard work" or sheer dumb luck, you could one day aspire to be so wealthy. But it's all a facade. That's what these documents prove - that they haven't earned their wealth, they're stealing it and hoarding it away. An essential part of living in a capitalist democracy is having everyone pay in to the same system, to support our health, our security, our economy and our environment. Part of the contract for accepting the benefits of living in a developed, prosperous nation is that everyone pays a portion of the cost to provide those basic needs and human rights is by paying taxes. And the vast majority of citizens do, but not those who earn the most, and not the corporations who earn money off everybody else. They are breaking the rules of that contract. They should be made to pay for it.

How can anyone say this is OK? Hiding money is not OK. Think of those who could use it.

The reporters who worked on this seem to be overwhelmed by the amount of data that they came across. Seems likely that there are still a ton of stories in those papers, but piecing it all together is kind of a mind boggling exercise. I think the main takeaway is something most of us already knew: the rich play by their own rules and don't contribute much to society. What's really crazy to me is that so many people do not demand transparency. For example, Trump supporters are perfectly happy to vote for Trump, even though he refuses to release his taxes. This is the kind of stupidity that allows the rich to (easily) get away with not paying their fair share, and have an inside track when it comes to influencing politicians.

If you have a problem with a politician doing business overseas or keeping table income overseas, then you should have a problem with Apple doing the same. Use your vote and your wallet.

Broadcast news is a more daily function. Most of them don't focus on huge year-long investigations. They leave the newspapers and independent journalists to do all of the hard digging for huge stories while they just cover the main points because that's all they can get into on tv.

The amount of time and money that goes into this kind of reporting would not work for a cable news model. That is why cable news bases most of their pieces off of newspapers.

That was incredible nice work.

These journalists are so brave and intrepid. Enough said.

Because whole video is based on Trump cabinet, so its not actual journalism, but silent bias behind cover of "leak". Even in European journalist heads Trump lives rent free. I have read alot of information related to this leak and can say that this video could have been about thousands of other more interesting topic related to the leak, bashar al asad, terrorist funding, china ccp party, germany and merkel, democratic candidates and their offshore funds, you name it, but no, whole video focused and try to glue russians and trump together. Pathetic yellow journalism, I would dare to say propaganda campaign.

Because all those thumbs down are the deamons they’ve been giving bribes to and promotions or any other number of perks that the dark elites utilise. It’s not just the elites, they have recruited so many enablers anyone could be compromised. In fact I would say all those that thumbs down this should be tracked and investigated they’re taking kick backs and are part of it. That’s why this will never change. These thumbs down are part of it xx

Not a Trump supporter, but also in the Paradise Papers, there is a board director on the Obama foundation in these revelations.

Flat tax is regressive, hits the poor harder than the wealthy. Progressive tax is the way to go. The more you make the more tax assessed. Deductions for moneys reinvested in the economy either through salaries, payouts to employees or in company infrastructure and the like.

BeamingSplendor - You nailed it. Just like slavery was not about racism in the US. It evolved into that, but it didn't begin with that. In fact, most of our divisions are about trying to gain the advantage over perceived competitors - from the individual to the group. People wanted to make a profit on the backs of a reliable work force and they turned out to be West Africans. They tried it with others, but the agrarian Africans offered a perfect solution: sun safe skin, mostly healthy populations and an abundant resource. it's cold, indifferent and immoral, because profit was the bottom line. It still is. Nationalism is not a thing.

Good investigative work! I wonder if all of the reporters are being nonpartisan in their reporting and will not just investigate current administration, but previous as well.
