Murdoch Joins Twitter

RUPERT TWEETS: News Corp majordomo Rupert Murdoch took to Twitter on New Year’s Eve and immediately amassed some 94k followers as of this morning @rupertmurdoch. Among his first Tweets: props for his own Fox movies The Descendants and We Bought a Zoo; praise for Republican candidates Rick Santorum (“Only candidate with genuine big vision for country”) and Ron Paul (“Great oped in WSJ today”) as well as New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg (“Best in memory!"); hope for a “happy 2012” (“Must change everything to create jobs for all, especially young”) and getting back to work (“Enough idling!”).
