To those who watch FUX here - Is the Murdoch stuff being reported?

If so how is it being handled. I am curious, but not curious enough to turn on FUX.

1. No but they'd better add Current to their must watch list

2. Ugh. I start screaming at the TV after 30 seconds on Faux. But for you I looked on the web a bit.

Now I feel dirty. I hit today's Fox News website. Nothing on their front page while it is the lead article at MSNBC and one of two at CNN. Seven or eight articles down at WaHoPo but the lead article at nytimes.com.

At least Google helps by pointing you directly at their web reporting. Shorter than the AP wire stories.

This July 12 article is sparse and understated. Seven paragraphs each 1 sentence long with a link to Sky news.

http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/07/12/news-corp-executives-reportedly-called-to-appear-before-parliament-in-phone/

This Fox Business article about BskyB is just nine sentences long.

http://www.foxbusiness.com/industries/2011/07/13/uk-pm-cameron-news-corp-should-withdraw-bid-for-bskyb/

So, just enough so they can say they covered it but definitely bad news for fearless leader is being placed at a low priority.

Now that was fun... ;)
