    Yeah, they rejected it now, but Murdoch be back.This is just the first go-round. It gives me and others who may feel as I do that it's just one more reason to despise Time Warner Cable, if just on general principles of things like monopoly and horrific service.

      Maybe Time Warner could find a White Knight with whom to merge. Perhaps an overvalued obsolescent internet company with no real revenues or prospects to join together as a partnership of equals.

      That would be quite the poison pill!

      Oh, wait....

    I guess that means the "Bugs Bunny Cutting off Florida" GIF is going to be replaced by a "Bugs Bunny handing out Bibles, Guns and Ayn Rand Novels to Photogenic White Kids" GIF then.

      NewsCorp also has a big share in DirecTV. We're moving into some creepy dystopia where one man actually controls the media.

        The world already has that dystopia. It's called Italy.

        Except Murdoch's evil empire stretches across national borders. I keep waiting for Cameron to try and sell him the BBC.
