Did you really understand what that said, because your opinion doesnt line up with what is happening at all.
NewsPrince al-Waleed bin Talal, the billionaire Saudi investor, has vowed to block any hostile takeover bid for News Corp, throwing his support behind Rupert Murdoch, chairman of the US media group.
Kingdom Holding Company, the prince's privately owned investment vehicle, has promised to convert its 3 per cent non-voting stake in News Corp worth about $1bn into voting stock and acquire additional shares in the event of a bid.
... Prince al-Waleed told the FT: The idea is that if the need arises, we will act to keep News Corp independent under the leadership of Mr Murdoch and convert our stock to a voting stake and take whatever additional stake is needed. He also supported Mr Murdoch's sons, Lachlan and James, who are deputy chief operating officer and chief executive of BSkyB respectively. I want to be sure Mr Murdoch and his family and the directors understand I'm ready to assist.

Well, at least the relationship is out in the open now. I guess the takeover is almost complete.

Yes, the Saudi are funding Murdoch. What more needs to be said?
Proves that you don't understand.

Then explain it to us oh great one. Either or get off the pot.
"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
--From Macbeth (V, v, 19)
