On today’s BradCast<\/i> on KPFK<\/a>\/Pacifica Radio, Eric Boehlert of Media Matters<\/a> joined me to discuss that remarkable news, his sobering column yesterday on “Murdoch’s Nixonian Demise”<\/a>, what it all means for NewsCorp properties here in the U.S. (like Fox “News”, the New York Post<\/i> and the Wall Street Journal<\/i>) and how the story is being covered by the media in this country both on the Right and non-Right.<\/p>\n

As usual, we’re also joined by Desi Doyen for some Green News Report<\/a> and a few listener phone calls round out the hour.<\/p>\n
