Rupert Murdoch endorses Obama?!?!

Post by Bilbo Baggins on Sun Jun 01, 2008 7:54 am

Has anyone seen anything about this? I can't believe it; the owner of Fox News and other right-wing/conservative media is (essentially) endorsing Barack Obama?! Crazy! I can't find a good article on it (I was reading it in a NZ newspaper) but something should come up.

It was in the Sunday Star Times here in NZ. Murdoch was interviewed regarding the NY Post's (which he owns) endorsement of Obama, and was asked whether he had anything to do with that. He replied, 'Yeah' and then listed off a few attributes and policies about Obama that he liked, before stating he couldn't officially endorse him until they personally met. He also said that McCain had a lot of 'problems'.

You're probably right. Anyone who changes their citizenship to get tax breaks can't be too concerned about the fortunes of their country.

Anyone who changes citizenship to avoid onerous, damaging taxes is to be commended.

I hate taxes but I hate Billionaires who spout off about politics because they know their money is sheltered from the IRS.[url=http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/story.php?id=192073&ac=PHnws][/url]
