Fox International said it would also move some broadcasting operations related to its Mideast channels from Hong Kong and other locations to Abu Dhabi.

No biggie...

How do you make that statement from the article contents?

Oh yes it is. Have you missed the big push to muzzie support on FOX?

A tax free exclusion zone is not just for merchandise anymore...

I figure this is Murdoch rattling his sword at the various taxing authorities here and in Europe. "Screw with me enough and I'll move the whole thing to Abu Dahbi."

I'm surprised more New York banks haven't done the same thing.

If you are going to operate in the middle east, Abu Dhabi is probably the best place to be based.

Well that would be okay if FOX retained integrity. But low and behold, they are all in support of muzzies. They are even making their peeps come out against Geert.

This may be the beginning of the end for FOX. Good going FOX.

It worries me to see so many freepers knee-jerk this story. If one isn’t willing to at least read 2-3 paragraphs of a posted piece- maybe it’s wise to not comment. Having done it myself and felt like an idiot later- I learned ;)

Now we have mass hysteria fueled by poorly written and headlined stories with countless people thinking by now that FOX is moving to the Middle East and men weeping and gnashing their teeth thinking of Julie Banderas in an hijab...

So much for Fox being fair and balanced on the War on Islam.

I would not consider it a big deal if I failed to notice that FOX is working against those who oppose the Muslim takeover of the world. All at once, mind you.

Money talks, fools walk.
