Since the Murdochs have been hammering the BBC , we were siting in the shed discussing how many good things come from the BBC compared to Murdochs News Corp we actually couldnt find anything that was any good coming from news corp can anyone think of any thing?

Off the top of the Head I can think of 100 good things from the BBC but nothing of news corp

BTW I do not like shiittyares movies like Home Alone from Fox
 
BBC documentaries are amazing (and Top Gear).

News Corp gives us some good papers like The Australian, TV/Movies with Twentieth Century Fox (there has to be some of their films you like!), Foxtel and for docos Nat Geo etc..

Oh and with no News Corp there is no Melbourne Storm.

If you're just talking TV then of course BBC >> News Corp.
If you ignore the BBC News then it's BBC >>> News Corp.

If you are talking the whole News Corp. and include the complete lists of what each have produced, with the various News movie studios and general (non-news) channels it's closer. Though still clearly the BBC.

Though the BBC HAS gone markedly down since it's glory days of the 70's and 80's. Blakes 7, Doctor Who, To the Manor Born, The Good Life, Robin's Nest, etc. etc. It was all class with almost no arse. These days there's a lot of shit, with far less gold amongst it.
 
Fox News.

Most unbiased and informative news channel there is.

MSNBC's not much better (You could say that it's a left wing version of Fox News), but maybe you can't see that because you happen to agree with what they say.

Fox News serves a niche market, that wasn't being served, that's why it is they way it is, and that's why Rupert Murdoch is the best at what he does (even though I can't stand the man in any way).

All networks have bias of some sort, the BBC is usually left wing, News Corp. tends to be more conservative, and locally the ABC is very pro Labor Party in all its forms.
 
Newscorp gives consumers choice, BBC gives them forced fund acquisition. If your BBC is so bloody good why can't they let the free market decide what they're worth?
