Steve Jobs: Fox News 'A Destructive Force In Our Society'

Steve Jobs told Rupert Murdoch that Fox News was a “destructive force in our society,” according to the blockbuster biography of the late Apple CEO.

Poynter was the first to uncover Jobs’ blunt words about the network in Walter Isaacson’s new book

Strangely enough, Fox news did not run this story but instead chose to focus on Jobs’ rivalry with Bill Gates.

Recall:

  • Since 1979, the income of the top 1% has increased by 275% even after taxes and income transfers.
  • Half of all workers in the United States make less than $26,364 a year.

Gee, I wonder why there are all these Occupy Wall Street protests. What could they possibly want?

Well then there is this, too. It doesn’t matter how many times I see that graphic from fox… It still makes me shake with rage. I mean really, it sounds like Dr. Claw came up with this shit.

It seems the definition of “news” has changed in the last century.

John B. Bogart once said “When a dog bites a man, that is not news, because it happens so often. But if a man bites a dog, that is news.” If that were still true then why do we not see ourselves, the 99%, biting back at large corporations for a change? I think that a single man can be attributed to this change: Rupert Murdoch.
