Several people have emailed me this privately. Is this is so it is huge news for conservatives and we can stop wondering about Brit, Fred and the gang and their deserting us and the truth in the clutch moments of the campaign.

Did Rupert Murdock sell FoxNews to NewsCorp whose President is Peter Chermin.

Uh, your kidding right??

[Gibtx]

[Cicero]

You have an odd name.

[Loyal Buckeye]

I don't know, but Murdock was looking for some govt. approval related to a dish network he owns. I don't know if he got it or it is still running through the approval process.

Well if Fox thinks it will find an audience without its conservative base...well..I don't think so--the liberals hate Fox News..they will just fade away now...what really pisses me off is that I have told so many friends, families, even liberals to check out Brit Hume to get the "real" story...guess now I have to eat crow!

[ShuShu]

No!!! This can't be true!

[Diddle E. Squat]

If you think Brit Hume is biased or would turn his ethics on a dime, you are a complete idiot.

[BlessedBeGod]

Rupert Murdock owns NewsCorp.

[Centurion2000]

If he did, Peter Chermin just bought a HUGE lemon. As it slides left it will crash.

And conservatives will move to the next network that presents news properly.

[Bahbah]

Could there be such a huge sale under FCC auspices and there be no public exposure?

The name News Corp. is the Murdock company that owns FOX News, Fox TV, Twentieth Century Fox Studios, etc.

What you're reading about is just bringing the Murdock properties under a single umbrella in the US. Murdock is presently home-based in Australia. And Chernin has been with FOX for a long time. Try to calm down. Failing that...do some research.

my only concern: they must keep Laurie, Lauren, Rebecca, Paige, and Patti Anne!

[Glenn]

Yes. It's true. Fox News is doomed, I tell you. An email cannot be untrue. Woe is we.

I don't know about any sale of Fox News but the coverage on the last two debates was awful as far as Brit Hume's panel is concerned. The Democrats were right where you would expect them to be on Kerry's side but tonight Bill Kristol looked like someone stole his piggy bank. I thought Kristol was a conservative. I thought the President did fine. He was a clear winner in my opinion. According to Kristol, it seems like after every debate the President always leaves something out. The truth is that you can always look back at a debate and say why didn't a candidate say this or say that. I thought Bush did fine and Fox News kind of surprised me looking almost like a MSM network. Just my opinion.
