Murdoch learned his trade from his father ( who in turn learned it from Northcliff ) who’s campaign to find a child murderer had an innocent man hanged. Nasty, nasty people.
As survivor of pen 3 Leppings Lane Hillsborough, I am shocked and stunned you failed to mention the role his "best selling newspaper" played in smearing the victims and us the survivors. That headline set the tone and still does!!
I remember watching Potter’s televised last interview and him saying he would like to have murdered Rupert Murdoch for everything he’d done to influence UK politics. He peddled fear by creating dubious monsters with which his media outlets would advise on how to slay. I certainly wouldn’t advocate Dennis Potter’s wish, but I can understand his emotive reasoning with nothing left to lose. Murdoch will die with the legacy of a James Bond villain who got away with his misdemeanours and history will not treat him well. The best thing that could happen is for his empire to go the same way as his corpse, or for it to morph into something which is the complete antithesis of everything he stood for.
Very nice summary and presentation. I think so many people truly don't understand how much he controls of media coverage in places like the US, UK and Australia, the sheer quantity, and how their newspaper outlets with their headlines, so easily set the morning talking points of 24 hour news media, regardless of who runs it. It is truly frightening how much control he has, just look at Australia and the efforts of the likes of Kevin Rudd just to get a royal commission to examine it , and you tubers like friendlyjordies try to show to people how this influence work. Constant attack pieces in Murdoch's outlets, which then get parroted elsewhere.
I very much doubt that there will be a royal commission, if Labor does institute a commission, it will be a new version of the Liar from the Shire, aka the Crook from Cook, of the ridiculous banking commission.
The fact that such oligarchs can manufacture consent is chilling. Regrettably it doesn't make people think for themselves and think analytically. Very revealing.
Limit the wealth individuals could own, to stop this abuse of power. Also stop foreign individuals owning media in Britain, including internet media. The British wanted sovereignty but here is murdock ruling the nest.
It was Murdoch who planted this ridiculous notion of not having sovereignty in the first place. also his fault so many poorly educated people were duped into believing Brexit was a good idea.
Did you miss the part where Murdoch became a US citizen in order to strengthen and widen his influence and control? The bit about GB sovereignty. It was never gone. GB had the best deal in the EU as a member and was one of the 3 controlling leaders. The idea of retaking sovereignty was peddled by Murdoch in order for him to control GB government. Reported in the video - he could influence Downing St but the EU ignored him. Follow the money. His behaviour is part power part greed. Why waste time getting people to like policies to vote you onto office, when you can directly pressure the head honcho?
Makes me realise that the Murdoch family have been behind so much hurt and misery in the world. My own family have suffered due to his lies. I'm so angry that I believed Murdoch's lies. What hurts me more than anything is that there will not be any justice because of how influential the family are
I learned how much influence he has a few years ago from friendlyjordies. I wish I'd known for longer. Everyone should know how powerful and influencial this evil waste of oxygen is.
As someone originally from Iraq, while it's been known for a long while why we were attacked, it's still a massive gut punch to hear the people who made these wars possible admit they were in it JUST for the bottom line. The fact that he'd been watching the first day of the war so intently and gleefully is so disgusting.
Sadly, when viewed at the level of global politics, and especially from a US perspective, the Hillsborough coverage is one of their "lesser" atrocities.
As an Australian there’s no depth to my loathing of the Murdoch’s and their empire!! They should have been taken down with the Levenson enquiry in your country, what a missed opportunity that was, disgraceful!! Time for these bastards to be taken down for good, worldwide!!
Won't happen without some form of divine intervention or mass collective action at a global scale. He's got too many politicians and powerful people in his pocket. Probably got secrets on all of them
The Levinson enquiry was held in order to blame subordinates and make them scapegoats rather than the management who lead what they were doing. Rupert is Teflon Man. While he is alive nothing will stick.
Our next government will likely enact Leveson 2. There’s also big court cases ongoing with Prince Harry and some celebrities around phone hacking, which is being very politicised. We’re basically just waiting for Murdoch to kick the bucket and for his empire to disintegrate like Maxwell’s did, it helps his children are completely incompetent

I've been watching Murdoch since the 80s. I'm not given to using extremities or language, but Murdoch is one of the tiny number of individuals throughout history that I would be happy to describe as truly evil.
And the morale of the story is if you have enough money/power, you can commit the worst atrocities with impunity. He and the Tories should be banished from UK forever.
He reminds me of the last scene of Men in Black where it became obvious (fictional) that our world is merely a plaything to bigger beings. A realisation that our lives are quietly controlled by those who are having fun making money and seeing how much they can make people jump their way. So, just question every single time. Do the research to ascertain the truth of something and then decide which side of morality you are on. Religion is one of those little triggers so don’t include that.
I wouldn't go that far, but it sure is weird. When they did that sting on second jobs I assumed there'd be a vertiginous ascent in subs Keep doing what you do regardless, guys.

Infuriating how one family can cause so much misery and destruction. There needs to be an action group prepared to attack them directly. They need to be followed and harassed at every public place they attend. They should never be allowed to enjoy society or public life in any way.

It's utterly ironic to think that people can make informed decisions when the information is literally controlled by someone like Murdoch.

Distinguished playwright Dennis Potter famously named his cancer after Murdoch, seeing him as a malignant, cancerous tumour on society.

It's a crowded field at the front of the race to be named 'Worst Living Human' but this makes a strong and compelling case for Rupert Murdoch.
The competition includes many of his pals....phony Tony, Dubya, Boris Johnson, etc...
The fact that such oligarchs can manufacture consent is chilling. Regrettably it doesn't make people think for themselves and think analytically. Very revealing.
He is an unelected politician, and his electorate is his viewers and readership.
