Anonymous Coward User ID: 1260049 China 07/20/2011 01:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Rupert Murdoch scandal is immensely big. Not only can people see and experience how the old media works and how it brought not news but control, they will also see the absolute and total corruption of society in the places of power. Rupert Murdoch's case is ousting police officers, police bosses and even regular police and how they took bribes for certain services only the police could provide. Finally we get it in our face how corrupt politics, police and the media is. If this doesn't make us go into action and demand accountabillity then I think we as humanity are completely totally lost in their programmings and propaganda and only disaster will free us from this planet and slavery. Imagine the power and control he had, he must have felt like a god with all that power. I laugh when people look up at comets and aliens expecting big events while they are happening right behind their backs. Those people will miss the Ruport event and miss the importance of what has been revealed to us just as the controllers wanted it that we do not see their dirty laundry being hung out. Many got distracted and turned their heads to the sky. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 694452Is it much to do about nothing? Are all tabloid newspapers playing the same game? Ethics mean nothing. Getting the scoop means everything. Does this story have anything meaningful to tell us? "Is it much to do about nothing"????? This is huge, one man has been killed, two police commissioners have resigned, it has the potential to bring down the British Government, and the biggest god awful media conglomerate on planet Earth is about to be ripped apart....are you kidding? There are also implications that the royals have been hacked, and the very upper echelons of the British establishment have been hacked, with god only knows what dirty secrets revealed, (will we ever know?) i think the Murdoch Empire has seriously fucked up here, they have rattled the British establishment to its very core, an establishment that has the power to destroy people, nations, and corporations, an establishment that has godlike power, an establishment that is in the process of destroying the Murdoch conglomerate and anyone who stands in its way, they have really pissed off the beast and now they will pay dearly.... |

A: The people I trusted, and the people those people trusted. By these answers, Murdoch admits to be responsible, didn't he trust the people below him in his hierarchy? Ofcourse he is responsible, and he should be treated likewise. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1360748 United States 07/20/2011 08:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | it is staged (obviously) probably for multiple reasons, the main one being, it was a way to re-surface the 9/11 victims/survivors meme by having it be a subject of his phone-hacking scandal. now we will be hearing about the 9/11 vicSims every day leading up to the 10 year anniversary memorial / hollywood bash. a fringe motive is to have a fake 'crack-down' on the media. "oh look, if media is corrupt we will hear about it from other media outlets!" which is utter bullshit of course. p.s. did anyone see the "murdoch gets hit by pie" video? do you recognize choreography when you see it? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 694452reading in the news about someone getting whacked, does not actually mean they were whacked. there is no good reason to believe anything in the news is true. it is probably a hoax to add more dramatic effect. these media outlets are all run by the same people. this whole thing is staged. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1475056 United States 07/20/2011 08:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | While millions of Americans have watched his films, such as Pretty Woman and JFK, very few know that Arnon Milchan is a "best friend" of Shimon Peres (born Szymon Perski in Wi?iewo, Poland) the current Israeli president and godfather of Israel's nuclear arsenal. Shimon Peres is "widely regarded as the architect of Israel's assumed nuclear weapons programme," the BBC reported when he was elected president of Israel in June 2007. Peres was elected to replace the incumbent Israeli president Moshe Katsav who was forced to take a leave of absence after being accused of rape and other sexual offences. (Milchan is also good friends of Ehud Barak and Benjamin Netanyahu.) Milchan's 40-year friendship with Peres, the man who oversaw the construction of Israel's nuclear weapon program is key to understanding Milchan's career as an undercover operative, weapons procurer, and film producer. The fact that Milchan, the Hollywood producer, has been Israel's "foremost weapons procurer" for decades, brokering deals for "everything from nuclear triggers to rocket fuel to guidance systems," is seldom mentioned in the U.S. news media. This is probably due to the fact that Milchan is also a "best friend" and business partner of Rupert Murdoch. He is also a close friend and business partner of Levin (Warner Brothers) and Eisner. "I consider him one of my best friends," Milchan said about Murdoch, "and I think vice versa. We're having a ball. He's a very cool guy." "Kingpins like Warner Bros.' Gerald Levin and Disney's Michael Eisner are quick to return his calls," the American Jewish journalist Ann Louise Bardach wrote about Milchan in her article "The Last Tycoon" in April 2000. In 1997, after a six-year relationship with Warner Bros., Milchan became a partner with Murdoch, selling him 20 percent of his film company, New Regency Productions, for $200 million. Murdoch also invested another $30 million in Regency Television. Today, Murdoch's equity partnership with Milchan is close to 50 percent. "Milchan's deal with Fox also assures him a level of financial security," Bardach wrote. "With Murdoch's $200 million investment and a subsequent $600 million line of credit from a team of banks led by Chase Manhattan, Milchan is well into mogul territory. "Milchan's tony offices occupy most of Building 12, right next door to the Executive Building on the Fox lot," Bardach wrote. "And it is from this seat of power that Milchan is building an entertainment empire that could one day rival Murdoch's." THE MILCHAN INFLUENCE The Israeli influence in films and news media has profoundly affected the quality of news reporting and entertainment. Israeli attitudes and ideas are now disseminated through national media outlets which reach the entire U.S. population on a daily basis. Israeli-made films often reveal hints or clues about actual crimes or criminal plans the Israeli producers are aware of. One such project, The Lone Gunman, produced by Milchan's "best friend" Rupert Murdoch, had a uncanny resemblance to the 9-11 attacks on the World Trade Center. Was this Milchan's influence? |
