News Corporation and the new News Corporation announced that, in advance of their planned separation, the Board of Directors of the company and the current Board of the new News Corporation has each determined to adopt stockholder rights agreements for the company and for new News Corporation, respectively. The rights agreements would expire one year after the date of this announcement, in the case of the company, or one year after the date of the separation, in the case of the new News Corporation.

The rights agreements are intended to protect the stockholders of the company and the new News Corporation from efforts to obtain control of such companies that their respective Boards of Directors determine are not in the best interests of the companies and their respective stockholders, News Corp. said. |

| 10:49 EDT | | NWSA | Senator questions TV broadcasters' free spectrum rights, The Hill says

| 10:42 EDT |  | NFLX | Netflix moves higher, levels to watch
The shares are moving against the broader sideways or down move in technology today, last at $244.10. It would appear that traders are intent on moving the shares back toward the $250 area. That area in the prior two-years was important support and then resistance. When the shares broke below that level in August 2011, it presaged a steep decline in share price. Retaking that level and holding it therefore might encourage more bullishness for higher price. A failure to do so could potentially derail the current trend higher. |
