      Worst Company in America

      Round 32: News Corp vs Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company

      By Ben Popken, 12:12 PM on Fri Apr 25 2008, 9,978 views

      This is Round 32 in our Worst Company in America contest, News Corp vs Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company, marking the end of tier 1 voting (phew!). Vote which sucks more, inside...

      Here's what our readers said when they nominated these two companies:

      News Corp:
      "The company that brings us Faux News, crappy reality series on Fox and the hive of scum (idiot self-centered teens) and villainy (sexual predators) that is MySpace. Oh yeah, and the Post too! Not only they want the WSJ, they want a piece of Yahoo! as well."
      "Allah/God/SpaceInvaders have mercy on you morons that don't know why."

      Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company:
      No readers specified why, but we suspect it has to do with them putting cows they knew were sick into the food supply for little kiddies to eat for their school lunch. Just look up "downer cows."
