Murdoch Hunts Dem Dirt

By Cernig

Have you noticed Murdoch has gone into attack mode?

His London Times hunted down one Obama half-brother living in China who exports goods to the US. It had a piece by the neocon's favorite London Times shill, Sarah Baxter, today on the National Enquirer
Edwards story too. Murdoch gained a substantial minority shareholding in the National Enquirer when he sold his competing tabloid, the Star, to it. His UK Sun tabloid also hunted down another Obama half-brother visiting Obama's step-mother living in public housing in Britain.

Upshot - Murdoch's told his people to dig Dem dirt. It'll appear in UK media first then get exported to the US. Given that pattern, there's a possibility the White House is helping and using the UK outlets to get
around laws against the federal govt. getting involved in propaganda aimed at the American people ("hey, it's not our fault Americans read UK papers on the internet!")
