Rupert Murdoch Forsakes USA, Will Move NewsCorp To Abu Dhabi
2010 March 9

It’s official now. This explains a lot of what’s happened recently. Rupert Murdoch is moving his NewsCorp headquarters to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. You can kiss fair and balanced FoxNews good-bye.

Breitbart has the story here:

“News Corp chief Rupert Murdoch announced on Tuesday that the Gulf emirate of Abu Dhabi is to become the headquarters of his global media empire in the Middle East.

Addressing some 400 delegates at the opening of the Abu Dhabi Media Summit, Murdoch said his corporation had started out as a small Australian firm to become a US-based international company that employs 64,000 people.

“I have every confidence that Arab companies can do the same and more. I also believe that Abu Dhabi can lead the way.”
Murdoch said News Corp would headquarter its Middle Eastern global online advertising operations in Abu Dhabi, and move a number of satellite television channels to the capital of the United Arab Emirates from Hong Kong.

“We will (also) establish a production office here for one of our documentary film-making companies,” he said.

“When we look to the future, News Corporation is betting on the creative potential of the more than 335 million people who make up the Arab world,” he added.

Organised by the Abu Dhabi government, the three-day summit is expected to address the potential of the emerging media markets in the Middle East, India and China.

Mohammed Khalaf al-Mazruei, who heads the Abu Dhabi Media Company, told delegates that “the Middle East is experiencing radical change,” and that its media should “accompany this revolution.”

News Corp has already established strong links with the region, last month agreeing to invest 70 million dollars in the Rotana Group, which is controlled by Saudi tycoon Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, after buying a 9.0 percent stake in the firm.

Isn't Abu Dhabi kind of cosmopolitan, at least for the Middle East? Just wondering....

Very it is like Dubai, everyone there is British educated and very much a part of the upper class in both the middle east and GB. It is also one of the mecca's (no pun intended) for the middle east horse trade for the sheiks.

This is because Rupert (the Bilderberger) knows that the sh!t is going to really hit the fan here at the end of the year as the dollar likely will crash very hard (as planned) as has been predicted. It might be really ugly here and he wants to be in a safer place away from the soon to be angry masses. (IMG:http://www.rightnation.us/forums/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Um ... there's nothing here about "forsaking the USA." News Corp's Middle Eastern presence will be headquartered in Abu Dhabi. He's moving satellite channels from Hong Kong, not LA. (IMG:http://www.rightnation.us/forums/style_emoticons/default/erst060.gif)

His Middle East operations will now be headed in.... the Middle East. Not sure how that means he's selling out Fox News's principles. But kudos to the blogger for putting a big scary Muslim star/moon on top of the opinion piece. Double points to his goofball readers who in the comments field rage about that well known Obama apologist Glenn Beck and how FNC can't be trusted because they didn't expose Obama's real birth certificate.

Yah I only see mention of the ME operations being centered in Aub Dhabi. Nothing about moving his entire empire there. But it's probably a good place to move if Socialist Obammassiah decides to destroy the company.
