We are told that Rupert Murdoch has great power in New Labour circles. Obviously quite terrible, ghastly in fact. That someone should be able to influence people by providing a product they wish to buy. Clearly, vastly better that people are influenced by a product they have no choice over at all, like, say, a State newspaper or broadcasting monopoly. That way they would only be exposed to the correct views, nicht war?
No big decision could ever be made inside No 10 without taking account
of the likely reaction of three men – Gordon Brown, John Prescott and
Rupert Murdoch. On all the really big decisions, anybody else could
safely be ignored.
Which of those three scares you the most?
