It is ludicrous in the extreme to believe in or push the notion that any news is good news-particularly when it is designed to polarize and dumb down through exploitation of humankinds weaknesses, rather than it's strengths. Google the word propaganda.

There has been no political imbalance that Murdoch or his agents so ardently push as fact.

Simply look at the Murdochian Result in Great Britain. Critical thinking's forum has been eroded to obscurity in a country which previously prided itself on intellectual communication through reasoned discourse. Murdoch "news" is no news at all, having no redeaming value but to him and his nationalist socialist comrades.

A good argument could be made that he is anti-civilization but selectively protective of the global corporation; that he compromises any serious gains that humankind has taken millenia to create for the sake of raw greed and absolute power over the non-ruling class.

Murdoch now has his sights on America, including that of the financial districts and the seats of it's culture. There will be no turning back once the population gets only detritus, sex, the shallow and the superficial, and an extremist's sensibility. His work product simply dumbs, rather than nurtures, the mind.

No, all "news" isn't good news, when in fact it acts in a deliterious rather than a constructively informative way. Murdoch maximally exploited the absence of the Fairness Doctrine for a reason.

His propaganda apparatus is most visible in the White House itself, as it is the only source of "news" allowed within it's walls. Why is that? Does anyone truly believe those in power desire a truly informed population?

After all, an intellectually numb population is a compliant population. One opinion will be all that's left in our future if Rupert's grift is successful. He tends to move in the same direction as those currently pushing world domination through force, fear, and intimidation.
