By Chris Ariens 

Former Washington Post & NY Daily News gossiper Lloyd Grove interviews billionaire webtrepreneur Mark Cuban for portfolio.com.

Grove: “Was Rupert Murdoch smart to spend $5 billion on Dow Jones and the Wall Street Journal? Why or why not?”

Cuban: “He got a great bargain. The W.S.J., brand can be applied to all of his business operations. The Fox Business [Network] can be the Wall Street Journal Channel and gain immediate credibility.”

Cuban also tells Grove, the internet is “dead and boring.”
