Murdoch Meltdown

It's in the news down here, too.

I have very cynical views.

It looks to me that Murdoch took NOTW out the back and shot it ASAP. Like he knew it wasn't going to get better and wanted to be rid of it before worse things came out. One wonders what, and how far, and who knew ... I guess lots, a long way, and everyone at the top, but nothing on paper.

And if phone-hacking and cop-bribing is what they do - more or less routinely - to put juicy stories in the paper, what do you think they do to make sure that important political and business decisions go how they want them?

He wanted to kill the body to discourage anybody from attacking the cancer.
