link here to article

Ruppert Murdoch's media empire in the UK is now a bit smaller. He closed one of his tabloids in the face of a rising scandal which has created a furor in the UK. Murdoch is the king of feeding the masses gossip and misleading information in the english speaking world. The scandal has exposed the relationship that he has with the police, who fed information to his tabloid, and with the conservative government that includes one of his operatives in a high position. Murdoch has a history of selling support from his media outlets to both conservative and labor governments in return for political favors. In any case, The Guardian has complete coverage of the scandal and its implications.
