UK Enquiry
May 12^th, 2012 at 6:24pm

Anyone else been watching the inquiry into the murdoch corruption? Last night they were quizzing rebbecca somebody. She told how "the sun" of which she was the editor is biased towards the uk liberal party. Apparently they used to be biased towards the labour party but they didnt like something blair did and switched. Thing is there is no law saying they cant be biased. @ least this way it will be out in the open and ppl will KNOW "this media is supporting the liberal party". She even vouched for the bbc (n ot her place i reckon but there you go).

Heh well our media backs the liberal party too doesnt it.

Yeah. Seems to me they are taking great pains to "not offend" the ppl they are questioning. When murdoch was questioned it was even worse. I find myself thinking "COME ON JUST ASK EM!"

I know this is going to seem strange and I cant remember who was being interviewed.
But in the short few minutes I was watching one I swear that the people on computers in the background were getting told where to look.
Like one second they would look towards the camera and then there eyes would slightly shift to the right, then get that 'oh no' sort of look and then they would look straight back at the computer for a while.

I will try find some video because you need to see it to understand.
