Huh? I think the sleaze charge can be easily demonstrated.

It could be directed at just about anyone, what's your point?
No, it could not. One just has to look at Murdoch's publications, and salacious show on Fox (which I admit, I've watched) to prove he deals in sleaze. Most of us don't have to worry about being painted with the same brush.

Kraichgauer, if someone did enough digging I'm sure they could find something in your life to accuse you of being sleazy.
I don't think the man is a saint, but trying to demonize the man simply cause you disagree with him politically doesn't speak highly of you (not just directed at you). Before people start about my criticism of George Soros, I actually am looking at things he's done, I'm not bashing the guy simply cause he is a liberal and supports liberal causes.
I'm talking about how Murdoch actually sells sex and scandal solely for the sake of titillation, not his political affiliation. When I say Fox, I'm not talking about his news service, but about shows on his entertainment wing, such as Married With Children (which I admit to watching when it was on). Then there's how he cheated on his wife, then left her for a younger model. That seems to be common with the moralizing right.
And as for me having something to hide - well, stuff that's more embarrassing than career killing or life altering
. But I'm not going to expose myself to the public eye like Rupert does.

If you'd look Ted Turner and others whom own left-leaning cable news channels they have gotten passes and their sleazy behavior goes largely ignored.

Thing is though, people like Ted Turner never courted the righteous right.

That is certainly no excuse.

Fox News does have Geraldo Rivera
http://forward.com/articles/8891/gerald ... right-now/
With his fifth wedding, and his first in a church or synagogue, to a hawt piece of Reform Jewish ass less than half his age, Mr. Rivera commented that "The Jews Need Me Right Now" and that he was going to “take this whole Judaism thing seriously" from then on.

Did you know one of Geraldo's ex wives was Kurt Vonnegut's daughter? After Geraldo cheated on, and divorced her, Vonnegut hated his guts.
