Murdoch...? Worried...?

he oughta be worried... with the "45 percent of Americans [who] believe little or nothing in their daily newspapers, up from 16 percent two decades ago," (see post, " Nearly 45% believe zero, zip, zilch, nada...," tuesday, april 12), people are being DRIVEN to blogs and message boards...

In a speech to American editors in Washington, Mr Murdoch issued a stark warning to the industry, arguing that the web was "a fast-developing reality we should grasp".

He said consumers wanted "control over the media, instead of being controlled by it", pointing to the proliferation of website diaries known as "blogs" and message boards.
