Don’t think anything Murdoch came out with would surprise me anymore. Dude is just evil scum. Suppose he has to claim to share the “work ethic” – ‘cos he sure ain’t got any other kind of ethics….

As for him controlling the media – if you don’t like it, don’t do anything that gives him money if you can help it. I don’t have sky, not because I can’t afford it, or because I don’t want to watch the programs it shows, but because I refuse to willingly give him money. Bit of an irritation at times, but there you go. Same with Myspace (aside from the copywrite issue) – He gets money from ad revenue, so I won’t go there. Obviously not always easy to never prop up the evil empire – it’s so pervading these days that you do without realising, but if everybody who thought he is a scumbag did that then his evil empire wouldn’t last long – especially considering I haven’t met a single person yet willing to defend him…..Odd that…:evil::evil::evil::evil:
