Rupert could never in his wildest dreams outspend Bill

[PimpBlimp]

In this case I hope to god Bill wins.

[JGalt]

if Rupert wins I'm gonna move my secondary email address the hell away from yahoo. Talk about a company that would randomly spy on its customers...

[jdmetz]

Well, since I think it is going to be a disaster for whoever wins the bidding, I don't know who to cheer for. Maybe they could each buy half? :)

[Dieseler]

Reminds me of the current election front runners.
Doesn't really matter who wins does it.

thats just plain scary

With as much as Newscorps stock has dropped the last few weeks, I wouldn't imagine they could afford to totally buy out Yahoo... but then again, the government could just print them out some money.

MEDIA MONOPOLY...

The government better start looking at this much more seriously than "Mam Bell' and breaking up that MONOPOLY back in the 80's.

Media Monopoly = Propaganda Control and is a very serious threat to any democracy and peoples liberties.

We have seen what the media has done to Ron Paul in just the last few months... SCARY

I say let them buy up yahoo. I do not care. He has a right to own property.
