Wall Street Journal editor sounds a familiar note

The money quote from Wall Street Journal Managing Editor Robert Thompson is this: "Journalists at The Wall Street Journal have the objective of being objective. At The New York Times, you have news with a skew. Or a skew with news." That sounds like the WSJ is going to follow Fox News' ridiculous claim that it is fair, offseting the slant of all others. With an editorial philosophy echoing that of Fox News, it's understandable why so many journalists are fleeing. Getting beyond that point, Business Week's story does add some interesting facts and plans from New Corp.
