Reason #4,593 why Rupert Murdoch is a cancer on society.
As usual, there is some brilliant commentary by Septic Isle on this.

James Murdoch, son of Rupert Murdoch, attacks the BBC:
Independence is sustained by true accountability to customers. People who buy the newspapers, open the application, decide to take out the TV subscription – people who choose a service they value. And people value honest, fearless, and independent news coverage that challenges the consensus.
While certainly fearless (or perhaps reckless), only an idiot would describe The Sun or The News of the World as ‘honest’ or ‘accountable’.
And with Britain’s biggest selling tabloids are also owned by the same company which owns its biggest selling and most widely known broadsheet and its main satellite television and radio provider, you can hardly this set-up ‘independent’.
This is why Dennis Potter called his cancer Rupert Murdoch:
Nick Davies has documented these, and other, unethical and quite possibly illegal methods used by our press in his excellent Flat Earth News.
Shiraz Maher shows us why he is a stupid moron and a sick bastard:
His claim about “Jewish hit lists” is also based on tabloid “investigations” (which means a Sun “reporter” using Google and then misreporting what s/he finds).
Update: See this further blog post from Septic Isle about the individual behind the call for “hit lists” on a Muslim forum.
Another reason why I hate the Murdoch press.
Why I hate Murdoch’s nasty newspapers.
A new blog has been opened for business: The Sun – Tabloid Lies aims to ‘analyse and exposing the many deceptions of The Sun newspaper (which is published by Rupert Murdoch’s News International).
