More Liberal Idiots
SAN FRANCISCO - There's a Fox in MySpace, and bloggers are squawking.What happy, friendly people! Maybe they should buy their start their own media companies, to counter the right wing media. But, actually, since the majority of the MSM is Liberal, I suppose they don't have to.
Nervous members of the wildly popular online social networking spot are blasting its purchase by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., expressing dark fears about the powerful billionaire's alleged motives and the possibility of privacy breaches, monitoring, censorship — and access fees.
"It's something we're very concerned about," said Scott Swiecki, 34, of Tempe Ariz., who's a member of the MySpace group "Faux News" as well as another group that combines the Murdoch name with an expletive. "There are a lot of counterculture people on MySpace. My concern is Fox will add fees and censor content."
News Corp. purchased Intermix Media Inc., the owner of MySpace, for $580 million last month, mainly so that Fox Interactive Media can reach the site's 22 million registered users.
MySpace, which launched just two years ago, is currently the most popular social networking site in the world. It makes it easy for people to customize their home pages with personal photos, art, color and music, along with market-revealing lists of favorite activities, books, music and films. Users can get site-wide bulletins, but they mostly communicate with friends or intriguing strangers they've expressly allowed into a network. Bands often use the site to debut their music.
As for the possiblity of monitoring, censorship, and access fees, Rupert Murdoch surely has the right to do what he wants with a business he has bought. Doesn't he?
Take a look at their little "Faux News" loser group.
And at these idiots here.
