The media market is the most rigged next to commodities and loan sharking like credit cards. It will be awhile before Murdoch is dealt the "Black Queen" from the bottom of the deck or slips on a banana on the yacht or munches the wrong sushi. But that's high stakes media, some day some one will be singing "Ding dong the witch is dead." Then, some even lower creature will crawl out of a lair to rule our world of media, the happiest kingdom of them all.
