Murdoch's complaint is a misleading rant. He knows perfectly well that he could be off Google tomorrow. I for one am sick of the dishonesty everywhere. Yes, it's a bitter pill to swallow, but do any of the big media execs really think that poisoning the public (or more likely the Congress) against Google will somehow benefit them? I tend to think maybe none, or perhaps very few, of the big publishing organizations will survive the next 10 years. I hope I'm wrong and that we see a lot of innovative thinking. However, watching other industries disappear is a foreboding precedent (remember the 5.25" disk drive makers?). Curt John,
