Credit where it’s due: Rupert Murdoch’s online news properties are at least now being honest.
This post admits that it has no news value other than to note that the MSM has further gone to the dogs…or cats as the case may be. “Meh watching yuz az a takeover target” perhaps? Will the new online honesty will policy extend to the News Corp owned MySpace: “yuz has yuk templates. ” and “Beware the Ides of Facebook.”
Update: was asked by email why this is relevant. News Corp owns MySpace along with a pile of other web properties, including the just recently acquired Wall Street Journal. News Corp web properties play an increasing large role in reporting on our industry, as well as participating in it.
Pretty funny Duncan.
I love your I CAN HAZ CHEEZBUGER imitations.
its an australian media…its business as usual ignoring ron paul in the American media.

get a sense of humor, you obviously need one
This was posted late at night PST, we have a ton of news up on the site already. If it was the WSJ (another News Corp site) perhaps you’d consider it more valid?
Whats going on? What about Newscorp? What was your point about honesty in media? I don’t know what this means:
” Will the new online honesty will policy extend to the News Corp owned MySpace: “yuz has yuk templates. ” and “Beware the Ides of Facebook.””
WHATS GOING ON AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY BRAINS
Also, Duncan, here are some great resources for startups to write about:

Duncan, you are the worst writer here.
Mike, please please replace him.
Nah, it’s a funny finding. I like it and understand what he wants to point out.
The photo is cited as coming from Associated Press….
Yet another of duncan’s pet peeves making the front page of techcrunch for no damned reason at all.
What’s next, then? News from the outback? Bah-bah-bah …
It’s true and funny Duncan, but this is a kind of comment that should go into the “TechCrunch Lounge:
Sit and relax, talk with the community about whatever.”
Not on first page!
Garbage posting, like usual Duncan.
I think you are about 20 minutes into your 15 minutes of fame.
Talking about honesty, I believe that paid reviewers ought to be much more upfront about paid reviews.
It would be nice if they started their post with ‘This is a paid review’.
You dont expect any of mr murdoch’s companies to tell the truth do you?
Just take a look at this:
