Columbia University vs. The Murdoch Effect - Big Journalism
part 2
"Why would anyone but a slave pay for such a service?
The fact is, we won’t.
Newspapers and network news are dying.
And it isn’t, as Bollinger would have us believe, because of the internet or any other new technology.
If that were so, Fox News and the Wall Street Journal wouldn’t be thriving as they are.
Mainstream news outlets are dying because they distort the news in the name of leftism—and there’s simply no reason to use a news source that lies.
To combat the Murdoch effect here, Bollinger wants to build the British system that Murdoch helped enfeeble.
If the people won’t pay for left-wing distortions by choice, they must be forced to pay for them through taxation!
Thwarted in their dishonest purposes, the left does what it always does: they demonize the opposition and unleash the brute force of government.
But the fact is, we, the people, do not want their high moral instruction.
We simply want the bloody news."
