News Corp. Net Strategy Draws Plenty Of Reaction

Given the amount of attention we’ve been giving News Corp.’s internet strategy for the last few weeks, it’s been fun to watch the responses to Rupert Murdoch’s remarks during Wednesday’s earnings call.
– So far, my favorite headline is “Murdoch vows to dominate internet” from the Sydney Morning Herald. “Rupert Murdoch has announced his intention to dominate the internet the way he dominates newspapers in Australia, and traditional media around the world.”

The Observer Blog: Rafael Behr is “indulging in alarmist fantasties about a future where internet searches come with the commercial and political strings of the News Corp media stable attached. And people worry that Google is turning bad!”
