https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamal_Khashoggi
Khashoggi fled Saudi Arabia in September 2017. He said that the Saudi government had banned him from Twitter[5] and later wrote newspaper articles critical of the government. Khashoggi has been sharply critical of Saudi Arabia's crown prince, Mohammad bin Salman, and the country's king, Salman of Saudi Arabia.[2] He also opposed the Saudi Arabian-led intervention in Yemen.
Jamal Khashoggi was born in Medina in 1958.[3] His grandfather, Muhammad Khashoggi, who was of Turkish origin, married a Saudi woman and served as personal physician to King Abdulaziz Al Saud, the founder of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.[12] Khashoggi is the nephew of late, high-profile Saudi arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi, known for his part in the Iran-Contra scandal,[13] who was estimated to have had a net worth of US$4 billion in the early 1980s.[14][15] Jamal Khashoggi’s cousin, Dodi Fayed, was dating Britain’s Princess Diana when the two were killed in a car crash in Paris.[16]
After his second resignation from Al Watan in 2010 Khashoggi maintained ties with Saudi elites, including those in its intelligence apparatus. In 2015 he launched the satellite news channel Al-Arab, based in Bahrain outside Saudi Arabia as the country does not allow independent news channels to operate within its borders. The news channel was backed by of Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal and partnered with US financial news channel Bloomberg Television. But the channel was on air for less than 11 hours before it was shut down by Bahrain.[29].[30] He was also a political commentator for Saudi and international channels, including MBC, BBC, Al Jazeera and Dubai TV.[19] Between June 2012 and September 2016, his opinion columns were regularly published by Al Arabiya.[31]
He fled SA in Sept 2017. Had news channel back by Alaweed. I am wondering if this Khashoggi guy has any connection to the Las Vegas Shooting.
