We had phone hacking and all the fall out. The hope was we'd see the end of governments cosy relationships with media moguls, looks like that was wishful thinking

Murdoch hates the beeb and would love to see it destroyed before he passes away. The whole plan to reform the Beeb is looking more and more politically motivated

Interesting this story this story is little reported and most of the press would like it swept under the carpet. News Corp aren't denying it happened, so come on George spill the beans?

Did you honestly believe the Tories and right wing press are totally disparate from each other ?

Maybe it was wishful thinking. Guess they look at what Putin and Berlusconi have done to their press and think why not in the UK? Fox News UK, coming soon on Sky Channel ...
