It's because he has an almost stereotypical quasi evil news network. In Australia he owns about 70% of our news media and in Britain the figures are also like 40%. In the US he owns Fox and a whole lot of other news outlets and is certainly one of the biggest if not the biggest media moguls in the world.lacktheknack said:I despise Lulzsec, but know nothing of Murdoch. Someone wanna tell me why he's evil incarnate?
This give's him huge control over the angle and views of his news providers (papers, television etc) and given he is incredibly conservative and self serving his media tends to stomp on anything he doesn't like, Hard.
