Many fans of The Wall Street Journal worried that the newspaper would become a cat toy for Rupert Murdoch after he bought it, but the paper's shift toward a more general interest newspaper has not been accompanied by tendentious politics, near as we can tell.

Every asset Rupert Murdoch touches becomes a vessel for nothing more than extreme right wing propoganda. Greed, fear and hate sell well in America unfortunately.

As a regular reader of the WSJ, I have to wonder where the writer of this article has been since Murdoch bought the paper. And the idea that there used to be a strict separation between the editorial and news departments of the paper is a myth. It has always been a conservative, pro-business periodical.

You really have to ask if the Faux street journal is biased.
What suprizes me is that there is no Bill O's stock picks " for the true born again rightwing conservative biggoted christian billionaire."

The WSJ has lost all it's integrity since Murdock took over. Don't believe one word written in the WSJ.

Dumb story OF COURSE it is biased. Murdoch is a stain upon humanity with his lies, character assassination and half truths. He should have his citizenship stripped and sent packing back to the outback of Austrailia.

I'm still trying to understand how he got fasttracked for citizenship and was allowed to control so much of our information for the sole benefit of one political party without having to be forced to tell the truth.

Anything Murdoch touches is tarnished and a sham.

Sounds like his son is following in his footsteps.

If any of these repubs want to talk about socialism....how about talking about how Murdoch is taking over the communications world

the opinion page has been right wing cheer-leading for years, so who cares?

Why is the Times sending Murdoch a love letter?

And also, lying in the process?

No need to read any further than the headlines to answer the question. Yes.
