of the modern media system.

What is happening at Fox Corp IS a classic of what happens when you are too big to fail. Ethics? If you are untouchable...

I am hoping out of this we see a break up of the media monopolies, and we may very well see that.

If this is the case, it will take a couple years, and yes... a few in this country will SCREAM I tell you, that this is libs going nuts.

Because there has never been a media scandal this big before... :whatever:

For all their talk of Murdock being the modern-day Gobbels, the primitives make no secret they want all media to be nothing but the lib POV.  Of course, they try to disguise it by claiming that their POV is the truth and therefore can't be propaganda, but that'll never work.  They get what they want and they'll dig their own graves.

Like Jayson Blair and the New York Times?

Like Janet Cooke and the Washington Post?

Like how The Guardian, Doonesbury, and most of the rest of the mainstream media ran with the "Lovenstein Institute of Scranton" claim that Bush had the lowest IQ of any president?

Like Dan Rather, Mary Mapes, and CBS' "fake but accurate" bullshit?

Get back to me when you pull that log out of your eye, asshole.

Yes, very strange.  Considering the DUmmies claim that the only reason Fox's ratings are so high is because of a giant conspiracy.

News Corp is nothing compared to what the federal government does everyday. The difference is that News Corp is being responsible and firing the offending employees. In the federal government they would get promotions.

News Corp never killed anybody like Gun Walker has. In fact Holder has killed tens of  Mexican citizens, American citizens and even government employees purposely...with our money..and persecuted the whistle blowers.

Here is one true fact. Nadinobrains and her predictions have nothing to do with reality and are never right.
