    • Desperate Times Bring Redesign to NY Times [view article]
      The New York Times stupidly ended its online subscriptions. I liked subscribing to the Times online, with the extra benefits the package carried. I wouldn't mind paying something like up to $100 annually for a subscription with a few perks tossed in. Sep 07 11:21 AM
    • How the FT Is Losing the Financial Opinion Wars [view article]
      Thanks! Very interesting read!

      I dropped my online subscription to WSJ when Murdoch bought it out and I saw the outstanding journalistic coverage of the Journal slipping into flashgirlytown like many of Murdoch's media enterprises.

      I now subscribe to FT and am lost in its discussion of UK and European stocks and businesses but I think FT introduces me into a totally new world of financial understanding and broadens my narrow, parochially American views of the world.

      I think their coverage of political and other news, my primary reasons for subscribing, is outstanding and gives me information that is unavailable in an American media dominated by the trivialities of the Murdoch media empire.       Jun 07 11:39 AM
    • Chatting With News Corp's Rupert Murdoch [view article]
      Lisa, Murdoch's ridiculous statement also caught my eye.

      I have never been able to forgive Murdoch for dumbing down U.S. news coverage since his entry into the U.S. media market.

      I find U.S. tv newscasts impossible to view because they are so devoid of content.       May 30 12:32 PM

    • Is Cablevision Overpaying for Newsday? [view article]
      Arrghhh! Bad news about print media.

      Very sad to learn about the McClatchy situation.       May 15 11:18 AM
    • Sirius, XM: FCC Determined to Establish Its Authority [view article]
      I've now had an opportunity to read the other comments here.

      First of all, this is the one solid truth of American broadcasting.

      American terrestrial radio is predominantly, indeed, suffocatingly extremist and right wing. There is very little liberal broadcasting happening in American terrestrial radio. I hope that you all can handle this simple little truth.

      XM and Sirius radio are two strongholds where liberal speech and true freedom are permissible.

      Frankly, I was very excited about their, I hope it was a joint proposal, to offer channels to minorities. It is about time and it is an exciting development in broadcasting. One tires of hearing only the tired rhetoric of boring old white men. I demand new voices.

      I am tired of hearing what explodes from Rush Limbaugh's broad buttocks on station after station after station. The scoundrel has a monopoly on American broadcasting and he is boring, totally boring, even his utterly pathetic sex life is boring. A guy who can only get it on with little boys!

      Ick!       May 15 11:14 AM

      I presume that it is Kevin Martin who's putting the breaks on this merger.

      Why?       May 15 11:04 AM
