Rupert Murdoch owns the Murdoch Children's research Institute in Australia that conducted the first guinea pig swine flu trials on young children. His son James is on the board at SmithKlineBeecham. His mother runs the Victoria's women's hospital in Melbourne. These people are all about population control and genocide. Injecting poisons into our bodies with these vaccinations, that cause diseases, like cancers. People wake up before it's too late! Read more at FluScamdotcom

If I thought for a moment that FOX was about to go bankrupt, I'd say, "Okay, there's a need to raise fees to cable companies.
But, I'm sure that isn't the case. What it is is just a case of greed.
I support all those who are fighting this extortion. I don't really care to pay for someones big bonus---I think everyone in the USA has had enough of that scam.
I've already bought all I need to get the station (FOR FREE) so I can tape all shows I want off FOX and watch later.
I suggest that EVERYONE do the same.

For Rupert Murdoch, the Internet does not exist, at least according to Michael Wolff, writing at Newser on November 10, 2009:

"Rupert continues his war with the Internet. Over the weekend, he told an interviewer (the interviewer, on Sky News Australia, works for him) that as part of his campaign to charge users for reading his content, what he plans to do is to block Google from indexing his newspapers.

As of a year ago, Murdoch had never used Google—never once, by himself, run an Internet search—and so it might be reasonable to assume he doesn’t know what’s involved here.

It is quite possible he doesn’t realize—and can’t fathom—that removing News Corp.’s newspapers from Google means that, in the largest part of the information market, they would cease to count, cease to be a factor, that their absence would not register as a hole.

Nor, it is possible, does he realize that as much as 90% of his traffic comes from Google and other search engines, that even if his goal is to sell content, there is really no other way to direct people to it than through search engines."

News Corporation is shutting down The London Paper, a free tabloid in the British city, Reuters reported on August 20, 2009:

"The News Corporation, the publishing empire controlled by Rupert Murdoch, said Thursday that it would close its money-losing free afternoon tabloid, The London Paper, ending a three-year battle for young commuters.

Mr. Murdoch’s son James, head of the News Corporation in Europe and Asia, said the company planned to close the newspaper after it posted a pretax loss of about $21 million for the year, after an advertising slump.

The paper started three years ago, covering sports, local news and celebrities, to compete against a rival free publication, London Lite, and a paid newspaper, The London Evening Standard."

Rupert Murdoch wants you to pay to read his news online, Michael Wolff wrote at Newser on August 6, 2009:

"Is Rupert Murdoch too old to matter? In the face of the worst downturn in the history of the newspaper business—what everybody except Rupert believes is a structural rather than cyclical decline—he bought the Wall Street Journal, built the world’s largest newspaper printing plant just outside of London, and is still talking about buying the New York Times. Yesterday, his company, News Corp., posted the biggest losses in its history. In response, my Uncle Rupert—who as recently as a year ago, when we last spoke, had yet to go, unassisted, onto the Internet—announced that he would shortly make his newspapers available online only if you paid for them.

Well, I'll say this, he’s swimming against the tide.

His uphill fight is probably even greater than it might appear. Not only is he, among all media executives, the most technically disinclined (actually, totally illiterate), but his company, of all the big media enterprise, is the most technically backward and maladroit. He may now employ more reporters than anyone else in the world, but they use the oldest computers. He may have some of the world’s most trafficked news sites, but they are also the slowest and most inept. Technology, at News Corp., has always been regarded as one of those things, like fancy hotels, or long-form writing, that are not part of the company culture."

Spanish TV: I would like to know why we don't have the Spanish TV channels using English sub-titles.

It would be a very educational experience for all - the American to learn Spanish and the Spanish to learn English.

Why isn't this happening on American TV? Thank you.

If your so fair and balanced how come you keep trying to push a POINT OF VIEW instead of reporting the news?

Sick and tired of stupid male enhancement commercials. Trying to watch tv with my two teenage daughters becomes uncomfortable for everyone in the house when those stupid "THIS COULD BE FUN". You'd think these stupid idots controlling commercials could wait at least until 9pm to air them, but nooooo. They come on all day and night. My 5 year old daughter turns to her daddy and says "Do you need male enhancement?" I can't watch FOX now or I have to change channels during commercials. You should be sued for this garbage.

February 22, 2009: From the New York Times article "Murdoch's Soft Spot for Print Slows News Corp.:"

"Mr. Murdoch, as much old-fashioned press baron as 21st century multimedia mogul, faces a depressing reality: his lifelong fondness for newspapers has become a significant drag on the fortunes of his company, the News Corporation.

The company recently took $8.4 billion in write-downs, including $3 billion on its newspaper unit, which includes The Journal’s publisher, Dow Jones & Company. Meanwhile, the News Corporation’s stock price has fallen by two-thirds in the last year, a sharper decline than at media conglomerate peers like Time Warner and Viacom.

In more vibrant economic times, investors and Wall Street analysts were more willing to look past Mr. Murdoch’s attachment to newspapers — the newspaper segment is now the company’s biggest single source of revenue, about 19 percent in the most recent quarter. But they find that a tougher chore these days, as other media struggle and newspapers suffer through their worst slump since the Depression.

“The thing I hear from investors is that they wish News Corp. was everything but newspapers,” said David C. Joyce, media analyst at Miller Tabak & Company.

“Investors are more forgiving when they are in a better mood,” he said. “The hope for a turnaround in the newspaper business is looking elusive.”

The declining economy and the sinking fortunes of print publications have placed in stark relief Mr. Murdoch’s love of newspapers and his deal to acquire Dow Jones just before the recession set in. Mr. Murdoch, chairman and chief executive of the News Corporation, paid more than $5 billion for an asset that generated about $100 million in operating income last year, a price that now looks like a staggering overpayment. Mr. Murdoch declined to comment for this article."

On February 5, 2009, the Associated Press reported that News Corporation lost a bundle in its latest quarter:

"News Corp., the global media giant controlled by Rupert Murdoch, said Thursday it lost $6.4 billion in its most recent quarter because of a massive write-down in the value of its assets.

The New York-based company, which owns The Wall Street Journal and the Fox broadcast network, also forecast a 30 percent drop in operating profits for the fiscal year to June from a year ago, when it earned $5.13 billion.

News Corp. shares shed 55 cents, or 7.4 percent, to $6.90 in after-hours trading.

Murdoch, the chief executive who controls more than a third of the company's shares, blamed the bleak outlook on falling advertising revenue and the impact of weak consumer sentiment on DVD and book sales."
