I mean just look at those wrinkles, what hides beneath them who knows.

All of his shows are huge rituals
They tell you that you are a slave
And ask for a new world order at the end
The hosts of the shows take energy in form of worship
there is even a possibility that they are really reptilians up there doing the show
so i'm glad news of the world and murdoch's shows are suffering

It's wonderful, looks like Britain might soon be a democracy again.

Not lit, though.

We just need to be rid of Daily Mail and The Sun then we'll be on our way to one.

Though, it does strike me as odd that the Daily Mail never got disbanded when they praised the nazis.

Sorry not entirely /lit/ relevant I am aware, however it is mildly with it being mostly regarding journalism and integrity. And if anything I know about /lit/ we do waste a lot of time expounding on the principles of philosophy some times.

On the other hand, have you seen his fucking wife?
She was also in the top 1% of her economics class at uni and later studied at Yale,

Not anytime soon with backdoor deals between the Tories and Murdoch. And all the other parties being scared to go up against the largest press in the country.

>getting rid of the daily mail.
Wont make a difference these days I'm affraid. The damage has already been done. I mean when have you not heard a politician (and not just the right wingers either) go one about "British Jobs for British People". Hell on the run up to election anti-immigration was the big hitter, they pretty much didn't bother mentioning other policies because the press have given "dem immigrants who come and take our jobs and our benefits and our houses" a bad name that everyone has bought into.

Remember the hate big GB got for calling the Bigot a Bigot?

I actually feel that the DM's reporting has been pretty decent on the Murdoch thing, which is good seeing as its the only right-winger not owned by Murdoch.

And yet our chanceller didn't even study economics, and got a 2nd in history... a 2nd.

In all honesty, all George does is address the Commons, Cameron really runs the show in terms of economic policy, the finer details are just sorted out by Osborne and his four ministers.

Unfortunately that "good" piece of coverage was like the sugar on the cyanide pill. Don't read the DM it is absolute bullshit 99% and has little actual news that isn't opinionated and exaggerated in a way to enrage people.

I'm aware of that my dear, but I still read it in order to see the opinion of people who read it, I'm saying that they're coverage and reporting of this particular story was good. I also agree with the top-rated comments for once.
