After a remarkable two weeks of reading and watching the unravelling of lies, deceptions, and audacity of power exercised by Murdoch's News Corporation; nemesis was delivered yesterday. The emperor and his scion, James, were cross-examined at length by a Parliamentary Select Committee. It was a slow process with Rupert looking and banging the table like an inmate from a Southern Cross care home and James indulging in obsequious obfuscation as he flaunted his vastly inflated ego. Wendi Deng, Murdoch's current wife, was the symbolic personification of the future - Chinese, alert, caring and in control. She was the only winner as the Empire of the Sun began to set.
The politicians of Britain had finally realised that the bad dream was over and they could put News International into the dock without fear of retribution. If only Thatcher, Blair and Brown had realised this over the past thirty years we would be living in a far more egalitarian and peaceful country. At least Thatcher agreed with much of the News International diatribe, there is no such excuse for Blair and Brown who seemed to be in fear and awe of Murdoch's influence and entitlement.
