I had to laugh... From The_Walrus ^Pro in The Walrus (10 hours old)

Rupert Murdoch is threatening to stop all his publications appearing in Google News. That will raise the quality of Google News. The bias in his rags does this Australian dinosaur no favours.… more

The fuss about tags. From The_Walrus ^Pro in The Walrus (5 days old)
