I normally like Horowitz, but this is just plain misleading, since the article plainly states that it’s making Abu Dhabi the base of it’s MIDDLE EAST operations, not relocating the company there.

This is good right? I mean, the free market types told me that business should do what’s best for making money.

And I’m sure the Arabs won’t interfere with news reports involving muslims.

You forgot to include “Sarcasm” as a topic for this story, right?

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.

Am I missing something? It says he is moving the ME advertising operations to Abu Dhabi, as well as a number of sat channels fro. hong Kong to Abu Dhabi. How is that selling out the US? I am not getting the ire ...maybe someone can enlighten me so I can grab a pitchfork!

This article is not well written, and apparently subject to interpretation. I’m reading it as News Corp opening an Abu Dhabi office as the HQ of it’s middle eastern operations, not that Abu Dhabi is going to be the hub of all News Corp operations world-wide, including those in the U.S.

So News Corp wants to sell news to moslems. They’ve got money, don’t they? I believe the term for selling something to people with money to spend is “capitalism.”

Can you blame him? Corporate taxes in the USA are too high.

NO- he IS NOT MOVING NewsCorps to the ME- he's setting up his MIDDLE EAST headquarters in Abu Dhabi...

This is getting waaaaaaay out of hand...isn't anyone reading the article?

Wait though, I understand what you are saying on it seeming like it’s ‘just’ the Middle Eastern branch of News Corp, but it quotes Murdoch of saying he had hoped to be a US based company...

I’m confused.

So what? He’s putting his Middle East company in the most pro-American country in the area. Many, many American companies are doing it including Halliburton. They must have tax and employment laws that are designed to attract corporations.

I’d rather the Middle East get its news from NewsCorp than Al Jazeera or CNN (but I repeat myself....)

I wonder how many people reading this thread think Murdoch is an American?

I hope this does not mean they will have to cover-up Alisyn Camerota in a burqua...
