Leveson inquiry

So, the Leveson enquiry.

It's been something I've been trying to ignore for a while, but it's failed. I've got to the point that I've got to make a comment on the stupidity.

Of late, we've had all these terribly damning links between media people and politicians. It's so terrible. Oh noes!

Let's be absolutely, one hundred percent clear. Before one media company was allowed to buy another recently (no names, you know who, but no names) it had to be put through a political process before it was approved. A process where the person running it had to be replaced because he admitted to a bias.

The media are completely in the hands of the politicians.

Given this, why are we so surprised and shocked that a company tries to stay on the right side of the people who can close them down?

I mean, really? Something was discussed for 2 minutes? Someone rode on a horse?

Get a grip.


Edit to add spacing
