Murdoch’s Hand in Another Honeypot

Something about one of the most powerful businessmen in the world gaining control over education seems afoul to me.  It’s only natural for me to question News Corps leader Rupert Murdoch’s motives when his goal is to “micro-target the eighth grade girls who want to become physicists.”  Maybe this is me being paranoid, but I feel like marketing in an educational setting should raise an eyebrow.  Technology has and will continue to help us grow but we need to be wary of the motives and tactics of the providers.
