Maybe the apocalypse is nigh: News Corporation kingpin Rupert Murdoch rang in 2012 on Twitter, dashing off his appreciation for in-house treats ("Great oped inWSJ [sic] today on Ron Paul. Huge appeal of libertarian message"), urban atmospherics ("NY cold and empty, even central park. Nice!") and, naturally, the movies of Fox and its subsidiaries. Good news: The Descendants scored some much-needed awards love! Bad news: Said love came from a man who extolled equivalent appreciation for We Bought a Zoo.
Hoo boy, now what?
Saw Fox film Descendants. Thank God, one to be proud of. Star Geo Clooney deserves Oscar, maybe film too.
"Maybe film too"? What an endorsement! Why couldn't it be more like this:
I LOVE the film "we bought a zoo", a great family movie. Very proud of fox team who made this great film.
Whatever. Nothing a quick hack from inside the office can't fix, though first I might focus on swapping out Murdoch's accompanying photo with something that doesn't look like a near-sighted scrotum with lips.
