FOX News going liberal?

Normally I like to at least try to stay current with what is posted here, but I've been out of town for a couple of days and really want to comment on this one.

As you know, right-wing media mogul Rupert Murdoch recently held a fundraiser for Senator Hillary Clinton. The Associated Press reported the move as "
mystifying some observers and enraging others."

Murdoch's FOX News has routinely skewered Hillary Clinton for years, but I think this move exemplifies what the political right is all about ... greed over ideology. Hillary is a powerful Senator, representing New York. She will possibly be the Democratic presidential candidate in 2008. Murdoch is simply hedging his bets.


Hillay's motive is less clear. Maybe it's her way of saying *#^* you to the political and religious right for years of abuse.
