Rupert Murdoch ‘not fit’ to lead News Corp  

Rupert Murdoch is “not a fit person” to exercise stewardship of a major international company, a committee of MPs has concluded, in a report highly critical of the mogul and his son James’s role in the News of the World phone-hacking affair.

The Commons culture, media and sport select committee also concluded that James Murdoch showed “wilful ignorance”. […] “We conclude, therefore, that Rupert Murdoch is not a fit person to exercise the stewardship of major international company.”

There’s a thick line between respectable sleuthing and invasion of privacy. Unfortunately for News Corporation, that line is much thicker than the one between reporting and propaganda.
