Rupert Murdoch

According to the New York Times article at http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/11/rupert-murdoch-unalloyed-unbound/, it seems like Rupert Murdoch is blaming President Obama and Google for everything that is wrong in the business world. He believes that Obama has not done much to fix the global crisis and Google is destroying all relevant news sources. According to Murdoch, Obama is making the financial crisis worse by giving away money that the country does not have. He even goes to defend Glen Beck from Fox News when Beck stated that Obama was racist. All Murdoch had to say was that Obama did make a racist statement. The article did not give too many details on this argument. Though he criticizes Obama's job in the White House, the article mainly focuses on Murdoch's problems with search engines. He believes, search engines, like Google, are stealing content from his News Corporation. He even claims that he is going to prevent google from accessing any of News Corporation's content. He insults search engines as if he is familiar with them even though the article states that the first time he used Google was about a year ago. There is no way he could go up against Google. Google is the main search engine basically used by anyone with a computer and internet access. After bickering on about how Google and other search engines are destroying news, he also back talks the BBC calling it a, "scandal because it uses tax dollars to compete against private media." He seems like an interesting man to listen to but he does not give enough facts to back up his accusations.
