Should Murdock still get the BskyB

In the light of recent News of the World phone tapping revelations should Rupert Murdoch still be allowed to takeover BskyB

When you realise the submersive mind control and social engineering power of TV, then it is unhealthy that one man can have control of it. - signed

Re: Should Murdock still get the BskyB

i signed it then was directed to a page asking to donate money to them.Don't hold much faith in a petition that asks you for money and encourages you to ask your friends to donate too.

Signed online petitions before and not once been asked to donate money.

Also seen as that immigrant who murdered a child is still in this country because of his human rights i don't hold much faith in petitions as it seems they get ignored.

Ford pulled their adverts from his papers and if the public followed suit and didn't buy his papers and cancelled their sky subscriptions that would have more of an impact than expecting government especially Cameron to do anything about it other than tut and wave his finger at him

time will tell and although i hope the swine gets what he deserves i highly doubt he will

Exactly what I keep saying. Will be interested to see how many copies the NoW sell this Sunday.

As for Cameron, expect him to do just as little as he's forced to do. :rolleyes:

38 Degrees, the company running the petition are very pro human right.

Just done a quick search there, and can't find any petitions to support the deportation of failed asylum seeker Mohammed Ibrahim, who killed Blackburn schoolgirl Amy Houston, then ran off, leaving the child trapped under the wheels of his car, and is allowed to stay in Britain, because of his human right.

Could go either way after the latest news, vast amounts sold due to it being a final edition, or very few due to people showing their discontent.
