First Media shots in the US Elections????

Whilst the last week has not been good fro Rupert Murdock with some commentators questioning how much he knew of the Goodman antics,In America as the Hillary campaign kicks off his contempt for the Clinton family is coming out in his publications.

Matthew Norman's media Diary in the Indy under the headline,

Rupert and Hillary: no love lost, eh he writes

TRYING TO interpret Rupert Murdoch's thoughts on the scrap for the Democratic presidential nomination is a confusing business. In The Times, the US editor Gerard Baker launches a ferocious strike against Hillary Clinton. Given how brutally Murdoch suppresses anything that might conflict with his business interests, this article's appearance suggests that he has cooled on Hillary since hosting a fundraiser for her in New York last year. On the other hand, his Fox network last week reported as fact the idiotic smear about Barack Obama attending a madrasa in Indonesia at the age of six. Doubtless the old boy will make his mind up soon enough, possibly when it has become more apparent which of them will win.

No doubt this will run and run,only 19 months 'til polling
