Thank you.

Will buy this book. And have subscribed. Rupert's class war has brought American stupidity to the fore.

It's great that these guys have come to see what Murdoch is , but the fact that they go along with it for so long and take the benefits for so long doesn't speak highly of their integrity or brains. But of course he 's not like you or me , he's a special guy, a genius journalist operating at a level that ordinary folk can't comprehend.

It is obscenely naive or despicably duplicitous for anyone to argue that anything that happens at Murdoch's publications without his full knowledge. Rupert, just like his father Kieth, exercises full control over his media empire, not by making every decision by putting people in charge that understand exactly what he wants and how he wants it done. The Murdochs are clever, ruthless, manipulative and power hungry they are not, never have been disinterested proprietors

Like a monarch with their court and subjects.

@@gordonwilson1631 sort of yes, but more evil. People thought he would be better than his father who was a proper bastard, he was worse

The number and grossness of your adverts makes your magazine impossible to watch.

Dominion got over 800 million it's hard to make up for that

Self regulation? The only thing this bloke said that I don’t agree with is that! Truth in media laws should replicate truth in advertising laws. Just as truth in political advertising laws must be!

So OK when he takes on unions but not when he hacks celebrity's phones? What a buncha crap.
