    The WSJ will become the print version of FOX NEWS. Pure neocon spin.

    Umm, forgive a newbeie's astonishment, but what exactly is the "mid" part of you being "midleft"? If I ever run into anyone here who is "farleft", I'm gonna be right scared!

      Murdoch's an old man; after he dies, will his successors continue with his growing monopolization of mainstream media? I thought his daughter was more of a rational, decent person, for example, and he seems to want his heirs to take over.

      All you have to do is read the opinions page and letters to the editor about how far right this paper has already become...

        Anybody who was a WSJ fan for the last 30 years knew this was going to happen the moment Rupert "I am the Illuminati" Murdoch bought it.

        That leaves one real newspaper left in the US, it's always been one of the best, uses real reporters instead of wire stories, and has never displayed the bias of regional politics that all other newspapers seem to increasingly suffer from.

        The WSJ will just become another vehicle for a Jewish Murdoch to promote through propaganda, more pro Israel support, at the expense of everyone else. How often does one ever see a story in main stream media that is critical of Israel? Close to never? Murdoch is consolidating.

          I was good with what you said, until you said, ". . .long list. . .". (Maybe phrasing?), although I agree with the exploitation. I heard about a poker parlor in Ca. that is Jewish-owned. The owner gives millions of dollars to Israel, where it is used to fund illegal settlement activity. I consider this funding to be no different than the funding that Muslim organizations have been accused of as aid for terrorist orgs. Those settlements are internationally recognized as being illegal (of course, since when did that matter?).

            Zionism is undermining America. Kick em out. No more dual citizenships for the greedy moneymongers.
