These brutal numbers probably haven't improved much during the past few months...

So what is your point? Or are you just revelling in a Murdoch failure? Which by the way is OK.

Will be interesting to see how long they stick with it. I think they just did a revamp.

Apparently there are several instances where new business news media were introduced quite near the beginning of major bear markets. I think Business Week pulled off that feat when it began.

The Dow recently dropped below a lower diagonal trend line that goes back all the way to 1974. For those who pay attention to TA, a Dow that stays below about 12,060 is a master matador.

It's not surprise. When it comes to people seeking news that will potentially make or lose them money, they aren't going to turn to a GOP propaganda outlet like Faux News. These people want facts, not "sky high oil prices are in their last throes."

Anon 7:59,
He's reveling in Murdoch getting a sugar, honey and iced tea sandwich. There really isn't a coorelation, it's just fun to say there is.
