Not-so-warm welcome for Murdoch
Meeting your new boss always seems to be a little awkward, especially if there are hundreds of not-so-flattering posters in the office. That was the case yesterday at the Wall Street Journal when Rupert Murdoch stopped by. It was the first visit for the media mogul since his News Corp sealed a $5.6 billion deal to buy Dow Jones, the Journal's publisher. Murdoch's appearance came amid strained contract negotiations with the Dow Jones Labor Union over health care and pay raises. Aisles of the Journal's headquarters were adorned with posters put up by union members, showing Murdoch with a suitcase full of cash and the slogan "show us the money."
