yes.
I liked one of the comments below the article “Frankly, I have no reason to trust Steve Jobs’ views on objectivity and news any more than I trust his views on effective cancer treatment.”
Touche. Besides being a creative genius Steve Jobs could be quite wrong on certain things. That leads me to think that a creative genius is not always very smart.
Very true. Yet it's hard for me to understand how multi-billionaire corporate moguls can mentally square that circle. It's as hypocritical as Pete Seeger (dubbed the "banjo Bolshevik" by Mark Steyn) establishing an eeeevil corporation to protect his music library, some of it plagiarized.
These days I often feel I've gone through the Looking Glass into a world where you have to believe six impossible things before breakfast.
Jobs was a genius...and a major league A-hole.
Genius often leads to hubris instead of humility.
He cheated his friend who wrote the code he could not write. He co opted GUI from Xerox and then whined when a few lines of code was found in MS apps. And he thought the danger to America was conservatism. Do you think this will deter the worshipers of Jobs? Not a chance.
The more I hear about him, the less I like him. And I never liked him much. A leftist, a bully, a thief. Not a genius. Just another slick salesman. Sayonara, SJ. We’re better off without you. (’Course, I’d say that of any leftist.)
Jobs was a magical thinking new age commie. It ultimately killed him which is only just. If only Marxism would target it’s suppoters rather than the rest of us.
It all depends what your vision regarding what kind of nation is being built.
I agree that the nation that Jobs and other lefties are trying to build is harmed by Fox.
Even though I believe Fox is trending to the left more than before. I guess it is part of wanting to present both sides of the story. The truth and the socialist's lies.
I don’t think new age communism killed Jobs.
It was pancreatic cancer.
>>> alienated many of its former viewers with its less than fair coverage of the news particularly regarding the Republican presidential nominees.
ie - 1) Fox isn’t pimping their candidate for them.
2) Fox isn’t sufficiently attacking the candidates they want attacked.
lol. They always seem to. All the major corporations support the left, they donate to all the right causes.
It’s this kind of thinking (by Jobs) that has infected California. As long as the world lines up to buy their stuff (technology and entertainment), CA will continue to prosper; no matter how many of us leave.
CA will also be a magnate for money because of typography and weather.
I thought Jobs was weird...sorry he died.
Steve Jobs Called Fox News a Destructive Force in Our Society

Steve Jobs is dead.
And Fox is not.
You mean like Rush?
Did you mean MAGNET?
