[17:10:27] <n1> is it wrong to do this: "Source: An American multinational mass media corporation founded by Rupert Murdoch."
[17:16:52] <cmn32480> only marginally
[17:20:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> n1, unless you're going to do the same to all the rest of the worthless (ABC/CBS/*NBC/CNN/BBC/etc...) sources, yes.
[17:23:10] <n1> it was more in reference to the other murdoch publications getting a pass in the fox news hate
