New York - News Corp.'s (NYSE: NWS) Fox News unit has fired ten-year veteran entertainment reporter Roger Friedman, after Friedman posted a review of the unfinished copy of 20th Century Fox's film "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" that was leaked onto the Internet. The film, which is not due in theaters until May 1, appeared on file-sharing networks last Tuesday; Friedman posted his review on FoxNews.com on Thursday, and by Friday Fox had pulled it offline.
