Courtesy of BusinessWeek Online, this story reports that right-wing media baron Rupert Murdoch and his chief lieutenant, Roger "I Made Willie Horton Famous" Ailes, just couldn't resist the temptation to go after The Other Side on the launch day of their newest cable channel, Fox Business Network:
"It's pure talk radio, and it hews to the right, like much of what News Corp. offers. America's Nightly Scoreboard anchor David Asman skewers liberal Democrats for the mistake of one second-level congressional aide who encouraged House staffers to get inoculated before going to NASCAR events. Is that business news?"
Now you know the real reason Rupe wanted to buy Dow Jones and its crown jewel, the Wall Street Journal, so bad.
