Not liked much is he

The system appears to work when they want it to

Can we get it working a little more please

Lets hope his father will take the hint also and resign. But I very much doubt he will.

James Murdoch is just moving to another job any ways. So he really has nothing to loose.

But good riddance to bad taste!

Rupert seems to be losing the plot, seems to me fox news is as right wing as you can get.

Rupert Murdoch hits out at 'enemies, old toffs and right wingers'

He told his 207,894 followers of "Enemies many different agendas, but worst old toffs and right wingers who still want last century's status quo with their monoplies [sic]".

There are bound to be some retirement homes prepared to take him in

He means educated old-money capitalists and the upper-class set that represent the traditional conservative establishment, as opposed to the modern tabloid right wing of religious extremists, conspiracy theorists, one-issue 'antis' and xenophobes who consume Murdoch's media and keep him in clover.

Thinking conservatives, you know... people who hate Murdoch because they understand how his cheap mass-media conservatism has destroyed real conservatism as a legitimate political position.

So, he's sore about his defeat and downfall here in the UK

Here's hoping they fail the OFCOM scrutiny, and badly
TY for the heads up
