re: How Much Power Has Murdoch Got?
The Murdoch empire already has too strong a foothold in UK media, along the lines of 39% of BSkyB plus assorted papers. A query is currently being looked at by the Competition Commission regarding whether it is acceptable to allow him to get a tighter grip.
It really doesn't do to have one company controlling too much news, it is already an extremely powerful tool and we have quite enough tabloid television too.
