A thought about Rupert Murdoch November 16, 2011
Posted by silentfirecracker in Media, Politics.add a comment
What can I say about Rupert Murdoch that hasn’t already been said? We all know that he comes from a land down under. You know, where women glow and men plunder.
He was a giant media mogal in Australia before coming to the states to start his News Corp. media here, which in current days includes Fox News, The Post, The Wall Street Journal and more smaller publications then I can list. When he purchased the Courier Life Group a few years back, I was sadly disappointed that some of the great local papers would now be the play thing of Murdoch.

If you go on the internet today, you will find more people’s opinions (especially on politics) than you would porn.
For the most part, bloggers hear something, write about it for about a sentence, then spend five pages telling people what they think. I would like to link you to some examples, but searching for something so widespread my end up crashing my computer.
We need to hold our columnists to a higher standard then this, and for the most part I think they are doing a good job, especially in publications like the NY Times and the Daily News.
