Rodney E. Lever — News Corp apocalypse

Scotland Yard has launched a new investigation into News Corporation, which may have disastrous ramifications for Rupert Murdoch and his employees.
Murdoch in trouble? Looks like he may have crossed the line.
British Labor politician Tom Watson, the first MP to speak out against Murdoch, is reported as saying he is not at all surprised that Murdoch is in deeper trouble than ever.
“He is solely responsible for the corporate culture that allowed this scandal to damage his global empire,” Watson said.
“I hope other jurisdictions like Russia will also begin to investigate all the activities of News Corporation around the world. The threat that thousands of people may lose their jobs is ridiculous. The company needs to clean up its act. It will survive without him. The people who work for it understand their social responsibility.”

Rupert Murdoch in trouble?
That's not news.

Rupert Murdoch being forced to pay for his wrongdoings?
That remains to be seen.

"Get this: the TV networks are refusing to put GetUp members' ad [see link below] on the air."
