New York Post

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The New York Post is the 13th-oldest newspaper published in the United States and the oldest to have been published continually as a daily.[3] Since 1976, it has been owned by Australian-born billionaire Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation and is one of the 10 largest newspapers in the United States.[4] Its editorial offices are located at 1211 Avenue of the Americas, in Manhattan...

The Murdoch years

While in the past the newspaper had been a long-established politically liberal stalwart, in recent years the paper has adopted a conservative slant, reflecting Murdoch's politics.

Murdoch imported the sensationalist "tabloid journalism" style of his British tabloid papers such as The Sun, typified by the Post's famous April 15, 1983 headline: HEADLESS BODY IN TOPLESS BAR. The Post also recycled The Sun's famous GOTCHA headline, this time in reference to the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, instead of the sinking of the ARA General Belgrano during the Falklands War.

Because of the institution of federal regulations limiting media cross-ownership, Murdoch was forced to sell the paper for $37.6 million in 1988 to Peter S. Kalikow, a real estate magnate with no news experience.[22] When Kalikow declared bankruptcy in 1993,[22] the paper was temporarily managed by Steven Hoffenberg,[22] a financier who later pled guilty to securities fraud;[23] and, for two weeks, by Abe Hirschfeld,[24] who made his fortune building parking garages. The Post was repurchased in 1993 by Murdoch's News Corporation, after numerous political officials, including Democratic New York Governor Mario Cuomo, persuaded the Federal Communications Commission to grant Murdoch a permanent waiver from the cross-ownership rules that had forced him to sell the paper five years earlier.[25] Under Murdoch's renewed direction, the paper continued its conservative editorial viewpoint..."

I am not the least bit surprised that The New York Post is cheering for Barack Obama along with people like Rush Limbaugh, Karl Rove, and Kathleen Willey!

Could it be that there is a reason why they are cheering for Obama such as that they think he is the easier candidate to beat in the general election because of his obvious inexperience, because he has received a near free ride in the media so far where he has not had to show any substance on the issues yet, and because he has also received a near free ride in the media about his past as well?

That is a very important question for everyone to very seriously think over and consider in my opinion:

Could it be that Murdoch is trying to cover all of his bases because he knows that Hillary may go all the way and win?

Many of the same donors give to different competing candidates in order to cover all of their bases. I do not know for certain that is the case with Murdoch and Hillary but it is certainly a possibility in my opinion!

I still find it very interesting that Limbaugh, Rove, Willey, Drudge, NewsMax, and The NY Post are all cheering for Obama against Hillary right now which definitely suggests to me that they want to run against Obama because they know that he will be the easier candidate to beat in the general election because of his lack of substance and experience on the issues!
