MSNBC: Hebdo’s murder is no different from a slander lawsuit
FOX News: “If we had guts, those cartoons would be reprinted on the front page of The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times tomorrow. They won’t be.”
In other media news … when Fox’s contract came up for renewal, they thought their increasing popularity should translate into more money for the right to carry their shows. Fox News and Fox Business are consistently in the top 5 viewed networks and Fox pulls in over 1.2 million viewers in a day. Dish Network Corp. didn’t agree and turned Fox off on December 20th. Since then, 350,000 Dish customers have called or visited Fox’s website about the problem and at least 90,000 have changed to a new provider that carries Fox.
