Bye Bye Ms. American Pie

News Corp. is trying to buy Dow Jones, which publishes WSJ. This is a sad moment for me, because the WSJ is one of my favorite newspapers, and I will be a lot less likely to trust it if it's published by Murdoch. On the other hand, another way to look at it is that the WSJ has always been published by conservative assholes, and the news pages have stayed fairly good so far. Another issue is that I just don't want my money going to News Corp.

On the other hand, maybe my admiration for the WSJ is misplaced.
