The New York Daily News: reports a recent, $27 million "no-bid" deal awarded by New York City to Wireless Generation has come under some criticism. Wireless, of course, is owned by News Corp., which played dirty by tapping phones and bribing UK officials. News Corp. points out the contract was awarded years ago. Said one New York City parent: "It is really disturbing to know that DOE and soon the state Ed Department have hired a Murdoch company to work on our children's data."
