Murdoch says journalism's future is 'more promising than ever,' but rails against Web 'theft' - http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technol...
F**k off, Murdoch - Mo Kargas
Google have taken most if not all of the classified advertising from the newspapers. Google has $25bn in sales. Most of the newspapers are bust. This is not new money or a new business. This is just money transfer from paper to online. Murdoch is fighting his corner. Show him some respect he's been at it since 1953. Sky Television rescued soccer in the UK. Murdoch did that. I love football. Thank you Rupert. - Thomas Power
Old Focker will die off soon... - CW™
Fact: You can't own facts. A house burns down. 5000 reporters write 5000 articles about it, telling the story 5000 different ways. The fact that the house burned down can't be owned by any of them. But Murdoch would like to believe he can own it, exclusively, and that you are not allowed to know that house burned down unless you pay HIM for that knowledge. How does he plan on stopping... more... - April Russo (app103)
don't misjudge and man cos' he's old http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... otherwise one day your grandchildren may misjudge you too. - Thomas Power
Huffington's rebuttal is good including a list of all the News Corp sites that aggregate(steal according to Murdoch)... Rotten Tomatoes, WSJ tech section, Fox News Politics Buzztracker, AllThingsD Voices... - Ed Millard
Murdoch's negotiating in public a better deal for himself with Google and Bing. Can't blame him. - Thomas Power
yes i can, and i do. - Joe Silence is not dead
I wonder what motivates Murdoch. He certainly doesn't need to make any more money. It has to be much deeper than that. Esp. at his age, when most people would have long hung it up by now. - Dawn
Its sport. Most hard nosed successful business people just play the game to win and to beat their competition. - Ed Millard
hear hear Ed and not bad for 78 is he? - Thomas Power
I think he is grooming his kids to take over so he's building a dynasty too. - Ed Millard
His father certainly did and it worked out fantastic for them - Maxamad
Some classy responses here. There is no such thing as journalism anymore. Just look at the U.S. media. - Spencer
Journalism does have a bright future - newspapers however do not. Have those somehow become equivalent? - Brian Sullivan
Real journalism is still occurring it is just becoming more polarized and funded by competing interests. Fox may be the broadcast standard bearer for polarization. - Eric Logan
Murdoch talking about "high-quality, reliable news & information" sure is funny. As far as the Internet, he's..uhm..confused: http://businessmindhacks.com/post... - Alex Schleber
Apple tablet rumored to be 'shockingly' inexpensive - http://www.appleinsider.com/article...
Also rumored to cure erectile dysfunction and solve the budget deficit at the same time. - Glen Campbell, B.A.
Revenue up, other things up, Glen? - Louis Gray
As long as it comes with Hypercard, we'll all be happy. - Glen Campbell, B.A.
People haven't started calling it the Jesus tablet yet? I'm shocked. - ronin
I'm more curious about whether the 27" 2560x1440 display will be sold standalone, and what the price point would be, given that the 24" display is currently $900 and the 27" iMac is $1700 (and it comes with a computer). - LogEx
...Apple pricing being what it is, that's probably shockingly "inexpensive" for the affluent and monied set... - .LAG liked that
Also rumored to fight the taliban, find bin laden, overcome republican filibusters and introduce universal health care ;) (Steve couldn't just stop at the deficit and the other thing) - Roberto Bonini

What's novel about Square, anyone know? - Cristo
I really don't see widespread adoption, unless there's more we're not being told. My comments from another thread... Something tells me this is not as simple as the Square site would lead one to believe. No fees for payers or payees? How is the data secured? What, if any, restrictions are there on use of the data? Square is probably not subject to the same regulations as banks or credit... more... - LogEx

Fail Factors – Why Startups Die – The Zealot | The Bigger Truth (via @stevedupe)
"Fail Factor #1 – Zealotry A zealot is someone who believes so strongly in what it is they are doing that it is all consuming for them, and it becomes contagious.  In a world dominated by followers, a zealot stands out.  Anyone who believes anything so strongly will stand apart from the wishy washy masses – be they religious, political, technological, or any other kind of  zealot." - Louis Gray from Bookmarklet
