The Fox News website is redundant.
If I want celebrity news, I go to TMZ.

That’s right. The economic climate being what it is few will pony up the cash. Oh well.

Oh, I bet ol’ Rupert has known for quite awhile, to the tenth of a percent, how many visitors block his ads.
I used to consider Murdoch, liberal weenie that he is, an astute businessman.
Of course, I used to think Warren Buffett was pretty financially savvy, too. :-)

I would never pay for that.. sorry.. plenty of free news sites out there. I DO love my fox news on TV but they can keep the website if they are going to charge me.
Then again it didn’t work too well for the NYT, because bugmenot.com had a working password whenever you needed one.
Sorry Fox.. but I wont pay for online news. Find someone else to make money off of.

This is stupid in a ressession. No problem..just go directly to Glenn Beck dot com. The election made me see the light about Fox. Big government pushers.

I’m all for capitalism with all the pros and cons involved. There are those that can afford to obtain the news that way, and those that cannot. Looks like I will not be visiting his news sites, and depend on this site providing me with the truth as usual.

That’s what did me in with Foxnews.com as well; all of the sudden it started looking like one of those lousy, celebrity story-ridden rags they abuse the UK with.

Murdoch's plan is ill-conceived.
It will fail BIG TIME; eventually all print rags will fall by the wayside.
It will pave the way for honest & true hardworking "reporters" to post online, only. And there is always FREEpervilled for all the news. Bye Rupert.
