[via New Yorker photographer Landon Nordeman]

Does that mean WCBS TV, Channel 2 in New York City — whose microwave truck is parked on the street, next to Murdoch — totally missed an exclusive interview?

WCBS TV REPORTER: Rupert, can we ask for your thoughts on the peacock?

MURDOCH: I’m sure it’s the most humble day of his life.

REPORTER: What?

MURDOCH:  I had no knowledge that he was going to escape and land on that ledge.

REPORTER:  Um, that’s not what we were asking —

MURDOCH:  I’d like to attach a camera to that bird.

REPORTER:  Why?

MURDOCH:  It’d make a perfect television network.

REPOTER:  What?

MURDOCH:  I’d call it “Bird Sky Bird.”  (Beat.)  Get it?

REPORTER:  Wakka wakka.

Sorry Rupert, the Peacock network will not be yours!!
