REPLY: Re Does Murdoch own MSNBC too?
No. GE (with their interests in Big War--quite a large block of shares in Raytheon Corp.-- and Nuclear Power) They're worse.

Check it out:Contract or No Contract, Don’t Mess With Dennis Kucinich…!
William McGeveran writes:
I checked with my friend and colleague Dan Schwarcz, who teaches contracts here at the University of Minnesota. He said the claim is not necessarily loony. As you learn the first semester of law school, a contract requires and offer and an acceptance (check, check) and then some “consideration” by both sides — essentially an exchange for value. But Dan points out that under a “unilateral contract,” the network can offer value in exchange for Kucinich doing something. Dan’s example: if I offer you $500 to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, and you do it, then I owe you.
The complication here is that the promise seems to have been withdrawn before Kucinich began to fulfill his part of the bargain. (Indeed, Kucinich learned of the judge’s decision when an aide passed him a note while he was appearing on Fox Business Network and the candidate said, “Holy smokes! I just found out. I have to get off the phone now. I have to make plans to go to Nevada.” Sounds like a law school exam question about whether Kucinich had begun performance…).
I guess the moral of the story is: when inviting guests for your news show, always tell them that the invitation is subject to change. Either that or: don’t mess with Dennis Kucinich.
