Yeesh.  First off, as several other posters have done an excellent job
of doing, THERE IS NO BAN.  Fox News just ain't interested.  And who
can blame them?  Neo-Con publications aren't exactly selling like
hotcakes up here.  The National Post is still running red ink, despite
constantly revamped ad campaigns and "special introductory offers"
(how many slogans have they gone through this year alone?)  And of
course, let us not forget Ted Byfields Report magazines, which went
belly-up last year despite constant cash infusions from certain
well-to-do individuals who shall go nameless.

So, basically, what you're complaining about is Murdoch not wanting to
throw money down a hole.  Get over it.
