NewsCorp Chairman and Cannibalism Enthusiast, Rupert Murdoch, recently expressed a desire for his digital properties to go it alone, without any so-called “help” from the internet leeches and charlatans at Google.
Yep, old Rupie has decided he would be better off without the help of the search catalogs of the most powerful force on the Digiscape. The fickle browsing public probably won’t even buy into his Plutocratic Propaganda Machine if they have to have its content balanced with actual news sources. Only through full indoctrination (via paid web subscription) can the PPM live up to its full psychologically potent potential. And so firewalls must be erected. Rupie and Co. will happily wall-in their own unsuspecting readership brick by brick. Perhaps they’ll even ordain a few editorialists and build the New Church of Foxentology, while they’re at it. Better that than to expose themselves to the danger that is the Intraweb’s open exchange of ideas.
