Murdoch's brand of journalism

Rupert Murdoch's Newcorp (owner of Fox News) launched it's new iPad app called "The Daily." The new editor-in-chief, in a leaked memo, tells his reporters that "Egypt is Over" and to concentrate on news stories along the lines of "the oldest dog in America or the richest man in South Dakota."

H.L. Mencken was certainly right. It seems the Murdoch doesn't want to publish anything beyond the intellectual capacity of his readers.
