Three months later, on August 1, 2007, News Corporation and Dow Jones entered into a definitive merger agreement.[32] The US$5 billion sale added The Wall Street Journal to Rupert Murdoch's news empire, which already included Fox News Channel, Fox Business Network, London's The Times, the New York Post, and the Fox flagship station WNYW (Channel 5) and MyNetworkTV flagship WWOR (Channel 9).[33]

Who would of guessed murdoch owned media would be biased? I'm shocked!

Hold it right there, because I want to take this opportunity to draw a distinction between newsroom bias and the editorial board's political opinions. The Wall Street Journal's news reporting is centrist and very objective by global standards. It's merely the opinion pages that are very right-wing. This is in stark contrast to organisations like Fox News where both the editorial and news sections skew heavily to the right.
