News Corp chief Rupert Murdoch announced on Tuesday that the Gulf emirate of Abu Dhabi is to become the headquarters of his global media empire in the Middle East.

I read this to mean he is establishing a foothold in the mid east.

From another source- Business Week

Murdoch told the conference News Corp. is expanding its presence when most are cutting back. The company will move some Fox satellite channels to Abu Dhabi from Hong Kong, establish a production office in Abu Dhabi for documentary filmmaking and use the city as its main office in the Middle East for global online advertising.

“Murdoch said News Corp would headquarter its Middle Eastern global online advertising operations in Abu Dhabi, and move a number of satellite television channels to the capital of the United Arab Emirates from Hong Kong.”

NewsCorp is HQ’ing its Middle Eastern Ops there, not reloacting the kit an kaboddle there.

I don’t get why people have been attacking and using drive-by tactics on them lately. Did I miss something?

The story does not support that bizarre headline. The story only says that:

“Murdoch said News Corp would headquarter its Middle Eastern global online advertising operations in Abu Dhabi, and move a number of satellite television channels to the capital of the United Arab Emirates from Hong Kong.”

The man never had any loyalty to this country. He became a naturalized citizen because it was convenient for his businesses. He is one of those people who just sees our country as a cash cow to be exploited. He has gotten as much as he can from us, and now he is moving on to where he thinks the next gold mine is. Fox News was allowed to be “fair and balanced” because he saw a gap in the media market waiting to be filled, and filled it. George Soros is the same kind of creature. To us, our citizenship is precious, to them, it is something to be bought and then discarded when it is no longer useful. We were fools for accepting them, and millions of others who have no true love for this country and its ideals, and only see it for what it can give them. It would be a waste of spit to spit on them.

He is a brilliant man. He needs to have a strong presence in the center of the new world. The UAE is where the real action is.

Bad, bad, bad, bad news. A news org moves its headquarters to a country that does not have freedom of speech or freedom of religion. Thank you Lord for the internet!

You would have to be crazy to move a business to this country with the high tax, high regulation, high risk of lawsuits. Good for News Corp.

Looks like we are down to Free Republic to have a free expression of information and ideas.

No more criticism of Muslims will be tolerated,I suppose.

If this is true, my qwestion is, why would Murdoch do this when FOX NEWS has been so successful in this country? Did the Arabs buy him? Where will Beck, Hannity, etal go? O’Reily I wouldn’t miss.
