I wonder if things might change when it represents a much larger percentage of the overall Fox portfolio after the Disney sell.

I suspect as long as Murdoch lives, he will be more than willing to use all that Disney money to keep the ball rolling.

His kids might want to get paid though after he dies. Still the opportunity to impact government to benefit him on tax and other policy issues will still make it worth it.

Meantime, here's to the Blue Wave you and I are extremely privileged to be a part of on Nov 6, Fox or no Fox, ailing Murdock or not.

I was correcting the poster's subject line. It said one thing and I think it meant the opposite. I just wanted to clarify for my knowledge.

15. Wouldn't it just be easier to correct your title from: "He has been public in over a year."

To: "He hasn't been public in over a year."? Rather than engaging in slinging contests?

I've told my children that hearing with their mouths is not the same as listening.
