Rupert Murdoch: 'Doubtful' That Romney Will Beat Obama In 2012 Election

The Huffington Post reports that Rupert Murdoch thinks Mittens is unlikely to beat Obama unless he fires staff members and brings the pros in.

Rupert Murdoch stated that Mittens:

Seems to play everything safe, make no news except burn off Hispanics.


Murdoch also commented that the Tom Cruse and Katie Holmes divorce will center around Scientology.

Rightardia has read another report that Katie Holmes did not want her daughter, Suri, involved with that religion.

Murdoch added:

Something creepy, maybe even evil, about these people.

DU: News Corp was stealing news stories from rival newspapers

 Rupert Murdoch, News Corp CEO

Holy cow!

A whole new twist just happened in the News of the World phone hacking scandal. So far Rupert Murdoch's Newscorp is being sued by celebrities, sports stars and politicians but everything just changed.

The first lawsuit from a rival paper's writers is accusing Newscorp of hacking into the phones of rival papers to steal stories. Not only they are saying that Newscorp got passwords from their emails that allowed Rupert Murdoch's minions to access the computers and databases of rival papers to see what they could steal.

I do believe that this means a violation of many international/British business laws. I do believe we might start seeing some Titans of publishing start duking it out in the headlines.

Fox News is owned by News Corp.

Please enjoy the article. It should bring you great joy if you dislike corporate news and FOX broadcasting.

Newsy.com : Rupert's New Rules

August 9, 2009 3:24

In response to News Corps’ massive losses, Rupert Murdoch announces that his company will start charging for all media content- let the debate begin.

Rightardia comment: This is a good development for progressive media.  Murdoch might get away with this for top line publication like the Wall Street Journal. We  doubt that he will make money with Fox news because there is too much opinion and too little news on Foxnews.com.

Rupert Murdoch wants to charge for Fox News Online

Aug 6 2009, 10:09 am
by Derek Thompson

Rightardia comment: What a brilliant idea. Perhaps Rush Limbaugh will follow suit. 

Rupert Murdoch announced plans to charge for all online content of his newspaper and TV empire. The move was made due to declining profits of the Murdoch empire.

This is a bold move to boost revenue from online news, but it may be doomed to fail. Murdoch's News Corp empire spans the globe, including the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, Fox News and Australian media.

Gawker says the move has "fail written all over it." Andrew Sullivan (who gets a check from Murdoch's News Corp for a Sunday column) gives it more of a chance.

Asking readers to pay for FoxNews.com is like charging $10 for an after-dinner mint. That's not just my liberal commie instincts talking up: It would be true for CNN.com or any site subsisting on the lifeblood of AP wire stories.

If the bulk of your site is expendable, borrowed, or fungible with Google News, there's no reason to pay a dime for it.
