Fox is continuing it's slide to the left.

Making room, of course, for a CONSERVATIVE news channel.

J. Rupert Moloch shows his true colors.

You 'aint seen nothing yet. Just wait until 2008 when Mr Murdoch puts the full force of FoxNews behind Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Murdoch is the head of Newscorp. I would imagine he spreads quite a bit of green around.

200 trade leaders back Kerry's bid [president/COO of NewsCorp, parent of FOX ] (05 August 2004 )

Among the executives with Kerry in Davenport were Peter Chernin, president and chief operating officer of NewsCorp [parent company of FOX News]

"The Kerry-Edwards plan for America is exactly what is needed to jumpstart businesses and get America working again," Chernin said in a statement released by the Kerry campaign.

Doesn't sound like "Murdoch" to me.

We here in Iraq haven't trusted Fox, either. Not for a long time.

They're just as quick to jump on the "body-count-journalism" bandwagon as the rest of them.

Which is a good reason not to have any of it available. Internet should be squelched to a large extent too.

You miss the point. Rupert's willingness to sell out to dhmmitude is more of a problem than a Saudi prince shelling out money. When the only criterion of right and wrong is profit, that's what one is left with - the wishes and desires of the highest bidder.

That's not how Charles Martel thought, so many centuries ago. Is there anyone left who values anything other than their bank account in the west? Sadly, it would appear not.

Never trust PRAVDA for news! I wouldn't take one doctors opinion, if he wanted to cut me,and I won't take one source of news,so long as their communist/fascist @ss wants to cut my throat! Through the internet,and talk radio, I knew this was a cover up from the start!

A Saudi prince who owns shares of the Fox News Channel claims he persuaded network chief Rupert Murdoch to change a screen banner during a broadcast that identified the recent unrest in France as "Muslim riots."

Fine.

If the riots are not Muslim riots, then the deserved crackdown is not anit-Muslim.

Murdoch is CEO...

Murdoch is the chairman (higher up on the chain of command).

Roger Ailes is the CEO.

But the COO (3rd in line) is a democratic fund raiser.

Alot of folks at newscorp and its subsiderary donate to the dems.

Ailes just happens to run a tight ship trying to keep those biases out.

Keep in mind that of Murdochs kids, only one is a conservative, and he is on the outs with dear old dad (lachan).

Thats been a rumor for awhile, but I wouldn't count on it.

Way to many folks think the both of them are looking to use, then destroy the other.

I.E. Murdoch wants her as the democratic party nominee because she makes good copy, draws rating and makes him a profit, but he will rip her apart once she is the nominee.

She wants the nomination and all the good press she can get, can lie through her teeth about media deregulation, and if she were going to win, backtrack and destroy him so she has no possible media opponent.

Murdoch is a pretty smart businessman who is also smart enough to know Hillary can't win the general election, but she can sell papers and draw ratings.

I think the real question is -- can anyone reasonably expect any multinational company to have party loyalty?
