What sort of surreal spectacle may we expect to witness next ? Will Rupert convince the three viable candidates for the presidency to pose nude for one of his tabloid publications or the maybe New York Post ? Both the FCC in its current state of neocon dysfunction and the Murdoch prostituting of the media are a farce and a tragi-comedy beyond endurance. They both should buried, one for ideological stupidity amd the other for sheer greed and egotism.
