 Murdoch Eyes YahooPosted on Feb 13, 2008
Having just rebuffed a $42.1-billion offer from Microsoft, Yahoo Inc. has another suitor: Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp. Although Murdoch is rich, he’s not Bill Gates rich, and MySpace, which is supposed to entice Yahoo into the deal, is so 2007. Murdoch detractors, therefore, should take pause, but not panic. The most popular news site on the Internet and Yahoo’s many other properties remain impartial, for now.

I would hate to see that traitor buy Yahoo. Just about everyone uses Yahoo somehow and the last thing we need are more traitors, i.e., Zionist Nazis, controlling any more of our media.

By cyrena, February 14: “Why doesn’t a UFO just capture that SOB, and take him off to wherever rich SOB’s go when they’re no longer wanted…”
That’s where he is…... in the US of A! Land of the freebies, fairweather friends and fine-feathered fowl…...

That picture of Murdoch is so biased. It is totally supposed to cause nausea and induce fears of the living dead.

I’m still more afraid of Murdoch and anything ‘Texas’ than I am of the Aussies.
Actually, the Aussies are just fine with me.
According to the article though, we don’t have to worry about Murdoch taking over Yahoo, at least for the moment.
And, if Yahoo rejected the Microsoft takeover, why would they (or the stockholders) allow themselves to be kidnapped or ‘taken over’ by Murdoch?
Why doesn’t a UFO just capture that SOB, and take him off to wherever rich SOB’s go when they’re no longer wanted, (if they ever were) among a civilized population?

The most famous foreign owner of American media outlets, Murdoch, is now joined by Macquarie Media Group of Austrailia which is buying up American newspapers.
Food for thought in the article ...
“New facts unfold in Texas UFO sightings: Police videotape, foreign-owned Texas newspapers”

Pity Yahoo doesn’t ‘eye’ News Corp. Then again, most probably the Saudis or the Chinese will take over eventually anyway, uhh…....
