This is why Fox News is NOT fair and balanced: * Networks are not supposed to back candidates, outrageous Media mogul Murdoch backs Bush in US election SYDNEY (AFP) - Media baron Rupert Murdoch backed George W. Bush to win a second term in this year's US presidential elections, saying US voters backed Bush's efforts in Iraq (news - web sites). AFP/File Photo Murdoch, the Australian-born head of News Corp., said Bush's handling of Iraq and the resurgent US economy would ensure the electorate kept him in the White House. "They're with him on that, completely. He's going to walk it in," Murdoch told Australian commercial radio. "The economy's doing extremely well and there is an international crisis. "You've got to understand, America was attacked. 9-11 changed America -- it was a big moment in history." Murdoch said the Bush administration had responded correctly to the threat of terrorism. "Oh yeah. I mean, they deployed all their resources, everything," he said. Murdoch's News Corp., the world's fifth largest media group, has been credited with the power to make or break governments. His backing of Tony Blair (news - web sites) was believed to a major factor in Britain's Labour Party winning power in 1997. Murdoch, who took US citizenship in 1985, is pushing to move News Corp's official home base to the United States from Australia to make it easier to chase Wall Street investment dollars.
