Rupert Murdoch Forsakes USA, Will Move NewsCorp To Abu Dhabi
March 10th, 2010
It’s official now. This explains a lot of what’s happened recently. Rupert Murdoch is moving his NewsCorp headquarters to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. You can kiss fair and balanced FoxNews good-bye.
“News Corp chief Rupert Murdoch announced on Tuesday that the Gulf emirate of Abu Dhabi is to become the headquarters of his global media empire in the Middle East.
Addressing some 400 delegates at the opening of the Abu Dhabi Media Summit, Murdoch said his corporation had started out as a small Australian firm to become a US-based international company that employs 64,000 people.
“I have every confidence that Arab companies can do the same and more. I also believe that Abu Dhabi can lead the way.”
Murdoch said News Corp would headquarter its Middle Eastern global online advertising operations in Abu Dhabi, and move a number of satellite television channels to the capital of the United Arab Emirates from Hong Kong.
“We will (also) establish a production office here for one of our documentary film-making companies,” he said.
“When we look to the future, News Corporation is betting on the creative potential of the more than 335 million people who make up the Arab world,” he added.
Organised by the Abu Dhabi government, the three-day summit is expected to address the potential of the emerging media markets in the Middle East, India and China.
Mohammed Khalaf al-Mazruei, who heads the Abu Dhabi Media Company, told delegates that “the Middle East is experiencing radical change,” and that its media should “accompany this revolution.”
News Corp has already established strong links with the region, last month agreeing to invest 70 million dollars in the Rotana Group, which is controlled by Saudi tycoon Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, after buying a 9.0 percent stake in the firm.
Alwaleed’s Kingdom holding company also owns around 7.0 percent of News Corp’s class B common stock.

Comment by American Grand Jury:
It is time for the American Public to show this corporation what boycott, non-support and cancelled subscriptions are all about. Murdock may be a good businessman but now he appears to be a Muslim sell-out.. not good for FoxNews.. not good for America.
Money and power.. the devil’s domain.. remember folks, ISLAM is and will always be the DEVIL’S RELIGION. Stay away from it. Don’t support it. Fight it with your last dying breath.

Just exactly how I feel about Islam. That is one reason I always post how the illegal Islamic person in white house is helping the Fort Hood shooter, buying his family a home with our money so the shooter can have his family close by, how about the families of the 13 soldiers he killed? I am feeling a lot of righteous anger, but vengeance is mine sayth The Lord, I feel I should let My Lord punish this person but when. I pray quite a bit, probably never enough, but the Lord is busy and sometimes no answers, but I will keep trying. God Bless America

Already tuned out Oreilly and Beck guess it is time to dump them all will miss Fox Business but I cannot see supporting anyone who is bowing to Islam!

Goldie, I’m feeling a lot of rightous anger, too. Haven’t heard about the house for the Ft. Hood shooter. This is disgusting news! BHO could care less about the military…protects his own kind…Muslims.
Floridafree, I agree with you.

This disease in the White House says Islam best, americans stupid and I willmake it a 3rd world country, I could have strangled Beck today, saying the Maasa person is not worth listening to, anybody in the Congress we should listen to, they are drinking entirely too much and playing around and doing things that Congresspeople should not do, it is the environment that is ruining these people, Pelosi is a very evil person and it is coming off on each person, everybody has a story, lets listen maybe we will learn just how to handle all this corruption. I like Beck, but he and O”Reilly gtting too sure of themselves, if they are so darn certain they know all, why not tell about the illegal Muslim in White House, with all the elite moving to Islam country, maybe their jobs won’t be so secure. God Bless America

Well,fellow Patriots,we can either complain about things that we can not change,or we can do something about it. We should be contacting someone like Brightbart and look into starting a peoples news network where the hosts are free to discuss the issues that are important to us. It is very evident to me that the MSM has been bought and paid for.We should check with the TEA party coalition to see if they would support such an endeavor..IE..similar to PBS (member supported).We can NOT let the voice of Freedom be quenched by executive decisions to sell out to Islam. Just a thought..comments are welcome.

I wonder if Rupert is a closet Muslim…FOX is on a downhill run, thanks to Rupert and his Muslim owners…

Bob sez… remember folks, ISLAM is and will always be the DEVIL’S RELIGION. Stay away from it. Don’t support it. Fight it with your last dying breath.
That’s not only correct, it’s really correct…I have been studying Islam for nine years…Jihad is an obligation, according to their writings…Those Muslims who reject it die a hypocrite…There are no hypocrites in Allah’s paradise…I’m posting this so that readers not so familiar with Islam can get the general idea…
Noble Qur’an:2:190 Footnote: “Jihad is holy fighting in Allah’s Cause with full force of numbers and weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allah’s Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.”

I have been warning everyone for weeks this was going on and have been attacked, or ridiculed.
I had no intention of being the messenger getting my head cut off, but so be it, and here we are.
I would vote for all of us to ban together and start our own TV Outlet, boycott and get rid of the rest, and I mean all of the rest.
I feel sorry for Greta, Hannity, Cavuto, Baier, Krauthammer as they were the only ones left who still love America.
O’Reilly & Beck have been in the tank for these ragheads.
I’m no Holy Bible scholar but I recently met a man who has converted many years ago to Christianity. He was raised Muslim, and talks about what a black evil the Quran is.
He said if the Isralites had done as God ordered hundreds of years ago, we would not now have this problem. God ordered them to kill all of the Muslims.
Very interesting man as he knows first hand how violent and evil these people are.

Fine business,Mr Murdoch can move NewsCorp any where he chooses.Since his organization is a slanted video rag and basically useless,Hope the door hits him in the butt on his way out.

Good Riddance Murdoch!!! I’m very happy to see you leave and I hope you never come back.

Pam Geller’s blog “Atlas Shrugs” and Robert Spencer’s blog “Jihad Watch” are the best authority for info on the muslims. They are friends as well and are great people. (This is just an FYI)

I just got in a newflash from an eletter regarding Reese Witherspoon.
I have always known she is a typical radical Communist Femi Nazi. She has gotten away with it for some time
but it has been catching up to her.
So this eletter quotes her as saying Michele Obama is a fashionista. That she is the best dressed First Lady of
all time!!!!!!!!!!
I had to take a pill for nausea. Reese Witherspoon is definitely “LEGALLY BLIND”. A really stupid bimbo.

Everyone talks about beck and oreilly,but I’ve stopped listening to what beck says and only watch oreilly occassionly and thats with rose colored lens. When they ridiculed people for bringing up the BC issue and the big O being fathered by a non-resident. I may stop watching any Fox channels at all. I’m ready for a News Corp boycott all together.
March 11th, 2010 at 8:16 pm
Michelle is a damn fool, when and if Obama gets busted, she will go as the co-conspirator to defraud and steal from American citizens. I do not like anybody who is taking my Constitution away. I took my oath of enlistment on this document but I will ask the Lord to Bless all caring posts and I will say God Bless America

The satanic evil of Islam will not be forgotten. I have a least thousand video links on the Islamic religion saved on one of my flash drives. A good portion of them are filled with the usual anti-semtic, Nazi like, diatribes that are so typeical of Islam. I have a website in the works which will be up by the end of 2011 which will continue to expose Islam for the anti-semtic satan worshiping cult that it is. Every single one of the thousand video links will be one there. The best thing of all RUPERT MURDOCH is that I’m not ever going stab America in the back by selling out to Islam and taking it off the internet once it’s posted even if I was offered a billion dollers for doing so. Persoanlly myself I’m not afraid or intimidated by Islamic fanatics in the slightest. As for all of the sellouts at Fox News who are now bashing Geert Wilders as being a fascist and lloking the other way to Islamic evil because of Rupert Murdock’s sell out all I can say is that you were once people I looked up to, I thought you were people with integrity, I thought you were people who were on my countries side. Now I know each one of you is a sham and a shame. Or to paraphrase Bob Grant I now know that you were all fakes, phonies, and frauds! One of the previous posters had a great idea about starting a channel to replace Fox. Wish I had a way to go about doing that.
