Rupert Murdoch remarries for the 5th time. Damn, I was hoping for
4 Weddings And A Funeral...
I read the couple is registered at
Bed Bath and Beyond the Grave...

#UK #News #Media #Journalism #MurdochPapers #Murdoch #PhoneHacking: "It is essential to say that, although some 1,600 cases have been settled with the payment of damages, much of this new evidence consists of unproven allegations. The news organisations contest many of the alleged facts as well as the inferences on which the claimants are resting their cases. It will fall to the Metropolitan Police and the Crown Prosecution Service to check the reality of the new evidence, to decide whether any of it is strong enough to warrant opening an investigation and, if so, whether it would be right to bring any charges against any of those alleged to be involved in unlawful behaviour.

What follows is the story of the evidence that is waiting to be examined, in addition to what was already known 10 years ago. Ultimately, it is a tale not only about the behaviour of the press, but also about the behaviour of power."

"When he lost, its front-page headline declared: “It’s the Sun wot won it.” Later, the Sun’s owner, #Murdoch told the Leveson inquiry the headline was “tasteless and wrong”, & that he had given editor at the time, Kelvin Mackenzie, “a hell of a bollocking”. He added: “We don’t have that sort of power.”

But they did and he knows they did. The Internet diluted the bile but not enough, hence Brexit. #MurdochGutterMedia #MurdochCanceronDemocracy #murdochroyalcommission

@Jakra I like the hubris assessment of Murdoch people being the authoritative source for the headline/story. Essentially an opinion piece masquerading as a news story. As they say, Murdock press is infotainment not news.

Apposite. I suspect The Times and Murdoch have decided to back another right wing party

Hugh Grant has been priced out of his ‘phone hacking’ lawsuit against The Sun, after learning it would cost him more money to win than it would cost Rupert Murdoch.

Interesting read.
There was an attempted infiltration of the SA #auspol Liberal Party by 500 Pentecostals as part of this plan to take over the 7 pillars of power.
Also that the proposed Religious Discrimination Act is a part of this ploy for a takeover. It’s a serious movement and well underway in #australia.
Atlas Network is at the heart of it.

Money talks and justice walks.
“My lawyers tell me that that is exactly what would most likely happen here. Rupert Murdoch’s lawyers are very expensive. So even if every allegation is proven in court, I would still be liable for something approaching £10m in costs. I’m afraid I am shying at that fence.”

"WSJ Swing State Poll For Biden Was Paid For By Rupert Murdoch And Conducted By Trump’s Pollster"

https://www.politicususa.com/2024/04/03/wsj-swing-state-poll.html

"The Wall Street Journal poll appears to contain bad news for President Biden in the swing states, with Trump leading Biden on the economy, inflation, and immigration. The cable news talking heads went into overdrive about how this is all terrible news for the incumbent, and horserace, horserace, horserace..."
