The future of media looks dim

As of last week, Rupert Murdoch, the Australian born American citizen purchased the Wall Street Journal for six billion dollars. This is only the start of what he calls, his war on mainstream media. His plans for the Wall Street Journal include making it more of a regular newspaper (with a conservative slant of course), and include sports, and more of a variety then the typical Wall Street Journal. Rupert Murdoch is obsessed with making conservatives dominate all aspects of the media, he has conquered cable news with Fox News destroying everybody else in the ratings. (With Bush's cousin, Roger Ailes, being the President of Fox News.) His Fox News Radio personalities including the Jason Lewis', the Bill O'Reilly's, the Sean Hannity's, et cetera are utterly crushing all other talk radio forums. But he has two things left before his domination is complete. Besides maybe the Washington Times, there is not a major conservative newspaper. Last week he said, "I am declaring war on the New York Times and the Financial Times." He has long thought that newspaper were too progressive and he will do whatever is necessary to make the new Wall Street Journal have the highest circulation of any newspaper in the country. If I were the NY Times and Financial Times, I would be afraid of Murdoch. He plays to keep. In addition, Rupert Murdoch is in the process of creating a new TV channel, The Business Network. You may ask why there is a need for a Business Network when we already have CNBC. Well, Murdoch's simple response was that "CNBC is too liberal." Of course it is Murdoch. Democrats might be ruling congress right now but the days when progressives ruled the airwaves are dead. There is a conservative media revolution that is coming my friends.
