....good luck with that Rupert. I don't know anyone who is willing to pay to have someone kick them in the nuts...

1. Good.

Maybe that'll help dry up his revenue source.

:P

[Deja Q]

2. If people are dropping cable, what makes him think they'll pay extra to watch The O'Drivel Factor?

?

[rwheeler31]

3. Great take all the idiot money?

[ControlledDemolition]

17. Yup!!! Say goodbye to a considerable slice of Republican fund raising! n/t

[mckara]

4. Hurray!

I hope they charge patrons $19.95 a month!

[RamboLiberal]

5. Hey Rupert - call the NY Times - worked for them - NOT

Remember when the NYT got the "brilliant" idea to charge to read Krugman, Friedman, Rich, and the RW columnists? They dropped that one after about a year.

[Booster]

6. Good. Only one's paying will be repugs - fine with me.

[zbdent]

7. geez ... talk about fools and their money ...

this way to the egress ...

8. That is laughable. Good luck, Rupert Pupkin, I mean Murdoch. You fucking clown.

Nobody pays for news these days. Especially the dumb asses who enjoy Fox.

Oy, I apologize for the obscene outburst; he is just the most ignorant, pretentious clown ever to preside over a newtork.

[Dappleganger]

9. Brilliant!

Best business decision he'll probably ever make. :D

[Mike 03]

10. Do it, you ancient, stupid fart! Drive yourself out of business. NT

[Somawas]

11. I would gladly pay as much as I pay right now to watch that shit. $0.00

[ControlledDemolition]

18. Well, to be honest, I would double your contribution to watch Hannity's unfair and unbalanced crap!

[tom_paine]

12. Well, he is going after the weakest-minded, most Nazi-like segment of the populace.

They'll line up in droves, as they would have if Goebbels' had asked their spiritual antecedents to pay for the privilege to listen to HIS Bushiganda.

[hvn_nbr_2]

13. Not clear on the concept, Rupert: You'd have to pay me to go there. nt

[timtom]

14. I won't feel a thing...

[Canuckistanian]

15. Good for him! I admire his entrepreneurial spirit!

And I think Fox News should be Pay-per-View, too.

[ControlledDemolition]

20. FOX, pay per view? Okay, but then only if you pass the loyalty test! n/t

[Canuckistanian]

21. Watching Fox IS a loyalty test n/t

[ControlledDemolition]

25. I sometimes watch it for the comedic value! n/t

16. He's losing money

Big time. We're getting our revenge. The rich right-wingers bought up all the big media a few years back spending a lot of money consolidating the news. And we bitched and moaned. Now they are losing. We still get the news but they are losing their shirts. I foresee a big sell-off coming soon.

[anigbrowl]

19. Works for me. Either way, we win.

either Fox news loses money, or Fox news viewers pay it and it's a few $ less going to the GOP.

[mdmc]

22. YES!

[spanone]

23. good, the fewer people that eat that garbage.....

[TWiley]

24. Good, may I suggest $10,000 per month?

The best news is that Murdock is going broke. His shit don't sell like it used to.
