Reuters landed its first exclusive interview with News Corp. kingpin Rupert Murdoch since agreeing to buy Dow Jones. He stopped by headquarters on Wednesday to survey his soon-to-be new domain and visited top Wall Street Journal editors and even made an appearance in the newsroom.

I dropped in to ask him a few questions. Here's the transcript of our conversation as we walked together.

MacMillan: Hello, Mr. Murdoch, I'm Robert MacMillan. I work for Reuters.

Murdoch: Oh, really!MacMillan

MacMillan: I just wanted to ask -

Murdoch: No.

Goes to show what a flat out common coward Murdoch is deep down. Typical of him to lack the graciousness of answering a few simple questions from a reporter doing his job. I guess when it comes down to it, old Rupert knows he's got too much he's in fact guilty of to have to answer any truly probing questions.

Few words but many evil acts..!

Murdoch should have never been allowed American citizenship..!

He's done more harm than 5 million illegal immigrants..

He also lacks a real American attitude and sensibility..as well as any and all ethics..

If you have to pay people to listen to you it is cheaper to say nothing.

Mr Murdoch isn't about to give a scoop, 1st view or an exclusive to the competition. He is in business to make money, not to make friends. Mr Murdoch uses HIS papers to express HIS views & to influence people HIS way. Mr Murdoch is in business for blood & money. He's an expert a drawing blood from the competition, bleeding the competition to death & making money at all times. He doesn't ever hide his fangs. He sets the rules for any game he's in.

Man,this this guy reminds me of a"James Bond" villain.
All he needs is an eye-patch and a white Persian cat to pet...

Thanks for your efforts -
Tho RuePert talks via money, keep asking him real questions; with luck, he may shut up, or shut down and go away.
