To my knowledge, and in my personal practice, Twitter and Google have separate uses. Twitter is for snippets of information that I don't seek out. Whereas Google is my go-to for specific information. I rarely ever search Twitter, and when I do its to follow "hashtagged" conversations. Perhaps I'm not a forward thinking as Murdoch, but this seems a bit knee-jerk and short-sighted to me. If your product (newspapers) isn't available where a still large numbers of consumers (readers) shop, then you lose. Not Google. And depending on the publication delisted, not the readers either.
