Fox news Icon and Owner, Rupert Murdoch endorses Obama. How’s that for Fair and Balanced?
thanks for the video upload sarah!
This is history in the making. Fox News backs a democrat for President. Murdoch gets giddy when talking about the prosepect of meeting Obama face to face.
Get ready Junior, I am gonna collect BIG TIME. Can I bring two friends to the bet? I’ll let YOU bring two friends to collect the bet IF you win.
Red, you are so right. Is this a new Murdoch backing Obama and buying the Wall Street Journal?
Maybe the clean Montana water and air are having a beneficial effect on him.
Junior,
You doubling down before you listen to the video?
i think sarah might want in, too
Sure, I’ll take that bet for Obama.
SMS
Anonyms,
The winds of change feel so refreshing.You might want to hop on Junior’s bet. He’s flush with cash and wants to buy drinks. Apparently he’s one of the $4million/year GOP backers
Ok, Junior. It looks like we got a party going on. view the video at your leisure.
So Junior, Murdoch even changed his registration to Democrat? Why else would he endorse in the Primary? Maybe he changed to Independent, Independents could vote Democrat in the primary but not Republican.
Anyway, before you get to call BS what do you have that says Murdoch supports McCain in the general election? Its not like he ever influenced MY vote.
Anonyms,
Please don’t antagonize Junior. He’s yet to bet Sarah and if you still want in, you need him to bet before he views that link.
It’s a party at Memphis. lol
Thanks Red, I prefer to buy my own drinks but I’ll come drink with you and Sarah anytime. OK, I’ll drink with Junior anytime too, hell, I’m Irish, nothing like a pub debate to get my blood rushing. Now drinking with Carl and Larry interests me but I don’t know if I can afford the drinks where they drink. (KIDDING)
Anonyms sandwich, eh, Sarah?
I think the video has scared junior off….:-(
Red, I’m shocked and intrigued – and available.
I think you all should rewatch the video. It clearly was made before Clinton lost to Obama as Murdoch was asked why she doesn’t get out. He may still be backing Obama but junior’s point is well taken.
Now will all you liberals stop beating FOX over the head for “being right biased”?
Technically he said he wanted to meet Obama, he didn’t say he endorsed him in the general election, at least not in that interview.
Red – Here is more proof that Murdoch has not endorsed Obama.
From Reuters concerning the interview you display in this post:
“Murdoch has yet to endorse a U.S. presidential candidate but considers Barack Obama very promising, the media magnate said in an interview by two Wall Street Journal reporters.”

NEWS FLASH – RUPERT MURDOCH’s NEW YORK POST ENDORSES McCAIN !!
THE Post today enthusiastically urges the election of Sen. John S. McCain as the 44th president of the United States.
McCain’s lifelong record of service to America, his battle-tested courage, unshakeable devotion to principle and clear grasp of the dangers and opportunities now facing the nation stand in dramatic contrast to the tissue-paper-thin résumé of his Democratic opponent, freshman Sen. Barack Obama.
And that is that – junior.
lol should have known Murdoch would do that after Obama agreed to that series of interviews with O’Reilly.
Well, at least Obama does give interviews.
BTW, Junior, please keep it civil. Namecalling and personal attacks towards other posters will not be tolerated.
Red – I am sorry that I called you a BS artist. That was uncivil of me.
But next time please get it right before you go off with a post. It was pretty clear that Murdoch had not endorsed Obama over McCain.
lol Red since when?
I wear nomex daily when I post
“Namecalling and personal attacks towards other posters will not be tolerated.”
I feel like I got off track in my above comment it turned into a rant. My point was you can’t police this blog…the name calling has been around probably as long as the blog.Just because it finally became personal for you don’t mean the rules change. Unless of course the rules apply to everyone! Sorry for my previous rant.
Wonder what Art thinks about this?
Let us err on the side of allowing namecalling. Douchebags.
Oh Vern
Bad form…Bad form.
Red Vixen deleting more comments.
Wow, 2 more comments deleted AGAIN!!
It looks like my time on the juice will be coming to an end.
What are we babies? We can not handle posts.
Vern whats the Juice come to?
Deleting comments for no valid reason I’ve had 3 or 4 deleted from this post.
1. I did not call names (which has never been a rule here by the way)
2. I disagreed and called “HER” on her actions so she deleted my comments.
3. She just deletes people she doesn’t like (thats not just me either, how about junior?)
Much Love Princess Douchebag;)
Wow for some reason I can no longer post on this particular article are Yeah ok…wonder why?
So yeah I am posting on Princess Douchebag, thought Vern might like it.
Danielle T and Yeah Ok,
I don’t know the details of why your comments are being omitted, but you have to recognize that both of you have demonstrated an in-your-face rudeness factor that, if potentiated, doesn’t contribute much to this blog.
Just thinkin’ outloud …
Sweetelle…
On two topics I have shown alot of gumption and I have every right to. This is an open blog and I am entitled to my opinion just as much as you are. You are right on one thing you don’t know…and by the way Danielle’s were not the comments deleted they were mine and juniors.
You can think what you like. I don’t think you contribute much either so I guess its to each his own. I know that I contributed to Arts campaign and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t want those people to go away…but if thats the case guess he can let me know.
Besides, douchebags are notorious for upsetting the proper PH of an otherwise aesthetically balanced environment …
Aesthetically balanced environment? Surely you jest.
Here is an amazing (free!) video about the life and holdings of Rupert Murdoch for anyone who is interested:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6737097743434902428
If true, 3/4 of what the world experiences in news belongs to Murdoch.
Junior, Danielle T, and I are not the same person just so we are clear. I may know them but I am not them. So get your facts straight, the truth has been twisted enough.
Thank You!!!!!!
Junior, you posted: “McCain’s lifelong record of service to America, his battle-tested courage, unshakeable devotion to principle and clear grasp of the dangers and opportunities now facing the nation stand in dramatic contrast to the tissue-paper-thin résumé of his Democratic opponent, freshman Sen. Barack Obama.”
Obama’s resume is less thin than Palin’s and no one has answered for the discrepancies between what the campaign says about her and what the record says about her. McCain looks old and tired and ready to snap. Hail President Palin!
“Hail President Palin!” sounds good to me anonyms. As long as it is not “Heil” – right Vern?
I am certain that she will be ready to take on the resposibilities should the need arise.
