Media titan Rupert Murdoch, CEO of News Corp., is none too impressed with presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
“When is Romney going to look like a challenger?” Murdoch
tweeted Sunday. “Seems to play everything safe, make no news except burn off Hispanics.” Murdoch may have meant to write “turn off Hispanics,” rather than “burn off.”
The press baron has found Romney wanting throughout the campaign. Murdoch even said before the Michigan primary in February that if Romney’s challenger Rick Santorum won the contest, it would be “game over.”
News Corp. owns the Fox television networks, the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post.
