this has been bubbling just beneath the surface for about 3 years and now the time is ripe with the Oz version of Leveson- the Finklestein Media Inquiry in full flight.
Yesterday Rupert's beloved ex-CEO (who he just booted out) rabbited on like all the reptiles that 'self regulation' was AOK.
and today :
Investigation of political favours against News Ltd
"FEDERAL police are investigating allegations that News Ltd offered a then-serving federal senator a ''special relationship'' involving favourable coverage if he crossed the floor on a vote of financial interest to the company."
poor Rupes..it's all tumbling down around his ears
