news feed

news porn

News porn: Extensive news coverage of an unfortunate but essentially unimportant event purely for the purpose of titilating the audience and stimulating their purient desires.
Examples of news porn covered on Fox News on Sept 18, 2007:

1) Blurry video of an Iranian woman being stoned in public. Presumably show to tap into people's growing desire to bomb the heck out of another Middle Eastern country.

2) Video of a heckler at a political talk being tasered by campus security. The TV commentators were so stimulated by this that they couldn't even figure out why they were excited it.

3) Coverage of the latest OJ Simpson arrest. Nobody really knows what happened but apparently it is very easy to come up with dozens of people to express their opinions on it.

News Corp

(BUSINESS & MEDIA) 3rd largest media holding company in the world; US holdings include Fox News, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, and Dow Jones; in the UK, News of the World, *The Sun*, *The Sunday Times*, & The Times (London); and a couple dozen papers in Australia, plus Sky Broadcasting. News Corp also owns HarperCollins & 20th Century Fox.

News Corp is fairly aggressive for a holding company in actually imposing a unified strategy and brand identity on its holdings. It was created by Rupert Murdoch from News, LTD. (a firm created by Murdoch's father, Sir Keith) in 1979, a few years after he went on a media buying spree in the USA. Murdoch became a US citizen so he could legally own US TV stations. The Murdoch family owns 29% of News Corp; Saudi Prince Al-Walid bin Talal owns 7%.

News Corp launched Fox News in 1996 to compete with CNN; shortly before this, News Corp also launched the neoconservative magazine *The Weekly Standard* with William Kristol as its editor.
News Corp is not as large as Walt Disney or Time Warner, but it has been far more successful as a business model than its larger competitors. That's mainly because Murdoch focused on finances and political strategy, whereas the other media conglomerates remain unwieldy, random agglomerations. It's like a battle between a remorseless bulldozer and a large heap of sand.
