"Fox Entertainment Group's vast resources will enable Beliefnet to expand our audience, enhance our offerings and more effectively carry out our mission to help people find and walk a spiritual path that brings comfort, hope, clarity, strength, and happiness," said Steven Waldman, Beliefnet's CEO, editor-in-chief and co-founder.

Beliefnet has around 3 million unique visitors each month and a daily email newsletter that reaches nearly 11 million subscribers. The company is not affiliated with any spiritual organization or movement, and it has partnered with Time Warner's (TWX - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) Time magazine, Yahoo! (YHOO - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), and Chicken Soup for the Soul.

Web acquisitions have been popular in the media sector of late, but News Corp. shook up the industry this year with its $5 billion acquisition of Dow Jones (DJ - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), the publisher of The Wall Street Journal, a deal that is expected to close before the end of the year.

Shares of News Corp. were recently down 41 cents, or 1.9%, to $21.16.
