Necessity of Gay Marriages -The emerging better half of Media

I read somewhere scepticism about News Corp's venture into the New Economy with MySpace.com stating that Murdoch is always known for innovation unlike this time when he is just following the herd. Latest is that he is also picking up Blinx.tv.
In the same breath, there is also the beginning of hue and cry over Yahoo original content ambitions. Essentially Yahoo has been an aggregator, but off late its new products (Yahoo news, Sprts Opinion and Analysis, Health Experts Blog) have too much of an original content to irk traditional media companies. Economist apparently has a scathing take on Yahoo's lack of focus - "Yahoo has old media plans for the new-media era"
