Stuff the news papers, with the www who needs it.
Who's the first person on the seen of a newsworthy story.
It has got to be a member of the public,
If it's an eye witness thats even better.
They can rite it up and there's ya news.
You can only believe half of what you read in the papers so whats the diff

*It will be fascinating to see how this plays out.*

You are quite correct there Pericles!

It seems to me that the Murdochs are frustrated right now.
Newspapers used to be a license to print money, mainly due to the
classifieds advertising.

Now the majority of them are losing money, due to the internet,
Craigslist etc. Murdoch bought MySpace for alot of money,
but that is now losing popularity. His only great win right
now is FoxTV, as more rednecks tune in, since Obama became
prez.

Google is his real frustration, as his online advertising
model as not worked out, meantime Google are making the real
money.

I guess the public will decide. People will pay for business
news, as they stand to make or lose lots, if they are not
well informed. Not so for your everyday news.

So I will sit back and watch it all unfold with interest!

Pericles,Yabby I wonder why he hasn't spent more effort in buying into Bing etc. It seems to me there are marked synergies. Ban Google and flood the media with his brand.

The other problem he has are the likes open source products like Firefox and Open Office they have apps that block the ads.

Realistically speaking I think that his model can only work in a controlled environment like PRC hence his overtures in this direction.

The moral aspect of this move is somewhat cynical on one level since much of his audience base in the US are as Yabby depicted them Redneck and staunchly anti communist.

It has been argued that he will become an active arm of The PRCCP's "control" repression. Arguably News's active mouthpiece participation is some steps forward of Google and Yahoo's (passive participation if you like)blocking. Mind you conservative politics love dictators they control dissension.

not just news it seems

In my view,..the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children,..under a free government..ought to be instructed.. .

No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.

1828 edition of Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language

Noah Webster,..the Father of American Christian education,
wrote the first American dictionary..and established a system of rules to govern spelling,..grammar,..and reading.

This master linguist understood the power of words.. their definitions,..and the need for precise word usage..in communication to maintain independence.

Webster used the Bible as the foundation..for his definitions.

This standard reference tool..will greatly assist students of all ages in their studies.

No other dictionary compares..with the Webster's 1828 dictionary.

The English language..has changed again and again..and in many instances has become corrupt.....but then who's supprised

Published on 15 April 1755 and written by Samuel Johnson, A Dictionary of the English Language, sometimes published as Johnson's Dictionary, is among the most influential dictionaries in the history of the English language.

Websters is US (yanklish) spelling is simplified, pronunciations are different as are many word meanings.

MACQUARIE is Australian

Oxford is regarded as The most authoritative.
