News Pitch: Why To Buy News Corp Graphic_rating_buy NWS
+37.40%

TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says this consumer-products titan has weathered the storm and should enjoy lower inputs.

General Mills (NYSE: GIS) (Cramer's Take) hits another 52-week high. This company has been one of the great standout performers this year, just a juggernaut, even though it is a gigantic buyer of grains and a huge user of cardboard boxes and plastic wrapping. Plus, it needs gasoline t...

in 1497 days

The digital age has not been kind to the newspaper industry. Not too long ago owning a newspaper was a lucrative enterprise synonymous with large circulation numbers, huge profit margins, and historically high stock prices.<!--more-->The newspaper industry, the second oldest mass media enterprise in the United States with more than 3 centuries of existence, had no outside competition because its structure was practically a monopoly and its core business highly localized.
