couple of points
1 .... I'm getting suspicious about this .....the Murdoch owned 24 hour Fox News (in the US) ,think it's Sky News in the UK seem to be coming out in favour of this Assuge guy, lots of chatter how the 'rape' accusation is a set up , and the UK courts being political controlled .
2.. Thing I don't understand ... Murdoch owned media in the US is blatently anti-British yet he is allowed to control vast swathes of British media , are there no controls on foriegn ownership ? here in the US all News media has to be at least 51% domestically owned (thats why Murdoch took out US citzenship) , same with airlines , Richard Branson is only allowed to own a minority share of Virgin America an Easyjet/Ryan Air type carrier .
