Murdoch owns liberal newspapers, too, around the world. Fox News is conservative not because Murdoch is conservative, but because he saw a market niche not being filled.
If Rupert were smart, he’d recognize that any success that Fox has, has been due to it’s primarily conservative views. (well, relatively speaking, of course).
I think it’s important for someone to at least TRY to turn OFF some of the blatent liberalism in ANY of the major papers! It’s the first step in trying to regain some sane communications with those-who-believe-everything-they-read. Most people don’t get their news from the internet.
