The reason Rupert Murdoch might win the battle against Google
There is one piece of information that I have yet to see in the debate over Rupert Murdoch pulling his content from Google. He own Fox news and they have an insanely huge pull with people. Fox news viewers are the worst of the right wing wackos. These people do not think. They just do whatever the pundits at Fox news tell them to. The reason Bush was able to cause so much destruction is the same reason why Obama has had such a hard time fixing things. The right are kind of Borg like. The left will debate and scrutinize things until well after the proverbial bell has rung. Liberals (I’m a liberal myself) can’t get anything done because they can’t ban together as one. For the Dems it means nothing to have a majority because they won’t ban together on anything anyways. The right however will. They will do it every time without even thinking. This is why they always win when screwing over the American public and the Dems always loose when trying to fix things.
So back to the whole Rupert Murdoch thing, this is why he can win this. Notice what he has done to news? Gone are the days of the non-biased news anchor. Everything is either far right (Fox) or far left(MSNBC). A news network has no chance of ratings if they try to compete with silly things like journalistic integrity. That is a goofy pipe dream in today’s times. So now we have to depend on getting our news from search engines. Read from enough sources and you get an idea of where the truth might be. However, imagine if Rupert Murdoch used Fox news to make Bing the right wing search engine and Google had to become the left wing search engine to compete? This would make the news even more partisan then it is already!
Don’t think he has the power to do this? Think again. We liberal douchebags don’t call them Fox News Zombies for nothing. As I have already said, Fox News viewers do not think. They let Bill O’Reilly do that for them. Imagine if Fox got their 7 million viewers to all switch their browser favorite to Bing and remove Google as their default search engine all at once. Imagine if they put up a link to the “Bling add on” right on the top of every page on the Fox News site. Fox can make Bling the default search engine for right wing wackos in a second. Don’t think they can’t or you give them more power than they ever had before.
