OH SH#T! A Murdoch Minion just got named to board of directors of The Associated Press. |
|
F##K! F##K! F##K!
Just as Murdoch's empire is taking a blow in Britain the AP turns around and hands him a victory. The idea of one of Murdoch's minions having more control of the newspapers in this country makes me sick!! I fear the implications of this...the board is large but, as we've seen before, Murdoch moves in and tries to take over everything.

3. I pray for more wacky news. I fully expect 'Koala Plays Piano' to show up in ever major paper |
|
Or 'Kangaroo Solves Rubik's Cube' in the NY Times.
But honestly, things are so fucked up in media and information that I doubt this changes anything in a way that would make most people blink.

2. Meh. The AP Board of directors is a revolving door. Murdoch himself was on it a couple years ago. |

4. AP is a right wing propaganda organization. Adding |
|
one more Murdoch shill isn't going to make a big difference.

6. AP is RW. Their news on the hour on XM 167 America Left is often RW propaganda. |
|
John Belmont, the morning news anchor, slips nasty little not so veiled RW promoting crap in his "reporting" whenever he can get away with it.
He probably thinks he is being clever, but what he is soooo obvious, it's pathetic.
AP sucks. :puke:
