As for Murdoch and his empire of sleazy well he got what was coming to him and I guess his words have come back to kick him in the rear. I personally do not subscribe to the reality T.V. phenomena it's such absolute rubbish and nonsense. My life is dramatic enough that I cannot deal with other peoples dirty laundry for money on the tube and the more we buy into this crap and watch this crap the more this crap will appear in papers, television and anywhere else they can show off the absurdity of peoples lives whether it is a movie star or some idiot that thinks money before morals because as you can see some of these people have lost all sense of morals or anything thing that remains scared in a persons personnel life. That's my opinion and happy to share it with you.<br /><br />Huggsss,<br />JBJensenblacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-8590867624865930002012-05-08T02:26:34.165+10:002012-05-08T02:26:34.165+10:00I think my country has long ago lost our brains. ...I think my country has long ago lost our brains.

I'm doing ok, I look forward to hearing how your appt goes. My last scans were good. I will be getting a new port in next week, unsure of how i feel about that. I'm trying to work on better eating, fighting cancer thru nutrition and conventional oncology.

Each to their own. However, if it had been in print for over 30 years then clearly a lot of people loved it. It was a formulae that worked for Murdoch. However, you cannot do what they did - where would it end. Things will change now and perhaps we will get to read about more football and other sport in the media instead, lol. There may be a job for you, they could do with your written skills!Lillyhttp://www.lillyslife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-67086208684544309702012-05-07T19:12:21.454+10:002012-05-07T19:12:21.454+10:00Young Werther, well save yourself some money and j...Young Werther, well save yourself some money and just go to the Daily Mail - its kind of like the News of the World but only online and free. Another British tabloid. I dont think its just the Tall Poppy Syndrome its just because the public really love this kind of stuff so Murdoch and his peers give the public what they want and subesquently get a lot of money. <br /><br />Good business I guess but where they went wrong was using illegal means to try and get the info to print. I am guilty of reading this crap from time to time as well. However, we just forget sometimes that these are real people we are reading about. And I guess Murdoch and son will realise what it must feel like to be associated with such a big scandal and be featured on front pages of the media.Lillyhttp://www.lillyslife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-75825604315666204492012-05-07T19:06:48.950+10:002012-05-07T19:06:48.950+10:00Thanks for your comment that was very inciteful.

Gossip, malign, scrape the barrel for the dirt. Rush to judge and hire freelancers who may not have any relation to the community, subject or topic about which they're reporting. I do read the newspapers and watch some TV news but I do it all in doses and actively search out positive stories and encounters in the real world that are positive. I've actually swallowed a lot of gossip recently and have deleted ofeensive jokes received via email rather than spread them. Great post as usuall.

However, I really think he doesn't see where they have done anything illegal. It probably has been the company's way of working forever since he took over from his father. I find it fascintating so I guess I am guilty of wanting to hear the dirt in his life.

The author wrote:<br />"Like Nixon during his Watergate demise, the hacking story appears to have thrown Murdoch into a free fall with no safe landing spot in sight. There doesn't seem to be any maneuver or strategy available to him at this crucial juncture that will make the blockbuster story go away, even for a price."<br />"My only mistake was underestimating the amount of cavalier lawbreaking that would be uncovered within Murdoch's "news" empire.Murdoch, like Nixon, had lots of secrets in hiding."I wonder if the general public will ever stop wanting to hear/read about "the dirt" in other's lives.......I live in hope!NamastePeggy xxxxmiruspeghttp://miruspeg.blogspot.com.au/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-36194221946111514972012-05-04T14:20:25.189+10:002012-05-04T14:20:25.189+10:00British tabloids have dragged british society dow...British tabloids have dragged british society down into the gutter.
