Could This Be The End of the New York Post and Fox?
I have not been following this story as closely as others but if Murdoch used these tactics in the UK for so long then I am assuming they were successful. So, if they worked well in the UK wouldn't it make sense for the same people to do the same thing at the Post and Fox? Is this something people have discussed or am I missing something here?

shed light on this.

5. But who's going to investigate here?
And what media outlets are going to feature it?

Will Murdock actually be hurt even in the UK?

13. If he had to Murdoch would sell to the Koch Bros...........
and they would be more than happy to keep the propaganda machine going. They wouldn't change a thing.

The posts on DU are becoming increasingly pessimistic and, in
my opinion, with good reason. I'm curious as to how many other Americans are as skeptical of our Govt as we on DU have become. But, as a long time poster on DU, I admonish all readers to not conclude that the dark skepticism means that most DUer don't care about America and quality of life in general. It is exactly their patriotism and love of life that is prompting so many displays of disappointment, disillusionment, skepticism and pessimism.

14. To paraphrase the reporter on the Hartmann show
it is now being finally talked seriously in the US.

That started today.

16. It wouldn't matter if Fox failed. CNN's not far behind. It would
merely become more skewed.

with a fine tooth comb. I bet they find something.
