Trying to obfuscate the point I'm trying to make? Now, where have I seen that before?

not surprising. liberals, like apple users, like to think they're better than everybody else, match made in california. not that i've ever seen an apple ad on Fox, but they could have continued to just not advertise instead of doing this. they're done alienating non-apple users and now they're alienating anybody interested in hearing an opposing viewpoint.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

@BjornskiThe iPod touch is only going for about 20-ish more dollars than the nano right now. I'd go with the touch.

Exactly... Annnnnd until they start including internet stats, which is damn near impossible, numbers don't mean s**t.Those are Nielsen ratings which are bulls**t anyway. Who has Nielsen systems? Good red blooded jesus fearin' people.Mainly the elderly watch fox news and movies on USA, kids watch disney, toon, and discovery, and houswives watch hgtv, tru, and food. And these stats come directly from my obserservations of my very large, very conservative, very mormon family.Interesting note on that... My grandmother turned down a trip to China the other day because "That is where Tojo is from"... The woman is not senile, free from Alzheimer's, was a teenager during WWII, my grandfather served in Korea, and she thinks Tojo was Chinese. I didn't have the heart to tell her that China was our ally in WWII against Tojo. She's also a devout Beck/Limbaugh/O'Reilly fan who is convinced that any day "Obama Bin Laden" is going to send death vans around to gather up and kill all the old people to cut health care costs.It's a dark, scary, fearful world people like this guy live in. And mostly for the wrong reasons. There's plenty of terror going on every night on the nightly news shows.Those stats say exactly what people like him want them to say. I don't have cable and neither do most of my friends. More every day are dropping off because the bulls**t is getting so thick on both sides. We buy our TV by the DVD set or check them out from libraries.Believe the hype if you want. But belief != reality. You want to really know something? Go farther than a few hundred miles from where you were born and spend some time with some real people. Get off the bus and walk down the street. Stop getting your info from the f**king hose.

For you to call me a troll makes you look bad - you sir need to understand how well beck is doing - you don't want to look because it might shatter your paradigm - your movement to the left is being shoved back by the truth to where it belongs - to the bottom of a deep dark hole - but blind little name-calling tactics - make you look more like a troll than you believe me to be. Here is a reminder of what Fox News is - <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/News_Corporation" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/News_Corporation</a> - $239 a share? What an inflated price - I hope it drops like real estate - yes I looked at the Wikipedia page for them as well - <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Inc." rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Inc.</a> - how pathetic can you get?

@WhereAndWhenSorry you feel that way. Someone reads an article about FoxNews and how the organization is not about the news but propaganda. Well as one who has and does watch Foxs, MSNBC, CNN, and my local affiliates I have to say that Fox has a conservative/right wing lean while CNN and MSNBC both lean to the liberal/left wing. Now, Beck has never stated as far as I can tell that he is broadcasting news but he has said that his show is editorial with an entertainment slant. So, if you espouse taking him off of the air aren't you also espousing censorship over his right to speech. You may not like the man or his politics and that is your right but apparently he is liked by enough people to justify his being on the air. All of these companies who are boycotting his show are giving him more publicity and this helps him because people who might never view Fox might just actually take the time to go and watch and keep watching(?). Now I have a question for you, do you fell the same about MSNBC's Kieth Olberman because he is the same as Beck but for the Liberal/left wing side of the aisle? Both are crackpots and should be watched at your own risk with no censorship attached. And, yes I am conservative and I watch Fox as I stated above.

Fox news risks creating a double standard in news gathering which will become - reality tv news. Something that resembles TMZ...

It will be interesting to see if Apple is spurred to maintain its boycott of Fox News or at least feel righteous vindication for it given this week's revelations of crime swirling around inside and outside the news conglomerate.
The companies who spurred this boycott a year and a half ago, might want to this time go the extra mile and challenge their entire industry -- not just their own marketing departments -- to shun the destructive news/entertainment company.
This week a member of the British government declared in Parliament that investigating Rupert Murdoch's news corporation was "one of the biggest police investigations currently underway" in Britain.
He implied and others contributed to the revelation that Murdoch's companies may have worked together to corrupt the police to derail the proper prosecution/investigation of the company. The police are now under investigation and Fox's sister company is about to throw another log on the fire, admitting yet another person in the organization was involved in the corporation's seeming crime wave.
Another person speaking in Parliament reported that paying police is suborning/corrupting and is illegal, and Rupert's management said that they did it and wrongly implied it was legal.
He also recounted how Murdoch's company had wined and dined officials on days when they were making decisions on whether to drop. In my mind, that leaves the shocking idea that the officials might have been digesting a gourmet meal fed to them by the company while they decided whether to investigate further and prosecute it -- or let it go. In accordance with their enjoyment of the meal, the metropolitan police officials decided to drop the investigation prematurely. Now, it is being picked up by a new team, and those who worked on the old investigation are being sidelined -- a clear indication they are not categorically trusted anymore.
Mitsubishi and Ford have dumped Murdoch's News of the World as an advertising vehicle for their ad campaigns. Mitsubishi has reallocated the advertising funds that would have gone into Rupert Murdoch's funds.
Instead of going to him, they will go to a charity to help young people as a token of respect for the families of young murder victims who were spied and on mislead by Murdoch companies criminal actions. This charitable act was suggested by a Facebook user and Mitsubishi's management acted upon it.

From Parliamentary statements and leading news service interviews, it is evident that breaking into voice mail was chronic, habitual, and paid for by Fox's UK sister companies.
That brings into conscious minds one obvious question. Here, like apparently in the UK, were Rupert Murdoch's reporters & private investigators hacking into crime victim's, politicians, actors and other celebrities voice mail and illegally paying off police to give
Plus, was there blackmail going on? Because where there is the smoke of illegal spying, then one has to wonder if the fire of extortion & blackmail were not burning beneath it.
The US & UK have been afraid of espionage by foreign non-state actors against the government and civilians. Now, it looks like the threat of such non-state organized crime syndicates take a very different form that the image that was in people's minds.
No doubt, because the conglomerate that shaped that image has apparently been carrying out that espionage and had strong reason to misdirect public attention.
That is really, really boycott-able. Would we boycott the Taliban and Al-Qaeda
I think we surely would. Would we stand by a company who shunned them as an advertising channel, I should think we would.
Nobody wants to watch the Al-Qaeda blimp flying over their heads telling them what to do with their money and who to be afraid of instead of them.
Rupert Murdoch's companies are that blimp.

News Corporation's stock dropped vertically yesterday, though I would not call a 5+ percent drop plummeting.

I hope our government investigates whether Fox's conglomerate or others have been hacking our US phones the way that UK phones were systematically, chronically hacked. It is only logical to expect they have been hacked more than realized.
johnnysoftwareJul 6, 2011
Hopefully, the US government will follow up on revelations from UK phone hacking and investigate whether the practice was as widespread among illicit conglomerates here as it was there.

Even in a country like Nepal, apple products are increasingly getting popular among the youth, long after the death of Jobs. Rest in Peace Jobs!
