Breaking News

[Mechanic]

This is a review by John Lord of Paul Barry's new book "Breaking News: Sex, Lies and the Murdoch Succession"

It is brilliantly written. Barry has a rare talent for the exposure of things complex and how to unravel them. What was depressing for me was the uncouthness of the man in question. He has obtained a vast fortune by printing smut and conditioning people to reading it and in doing so has displayed a complete disregard for the lives of others. His obsession with profit over anything else, even people's privacy, is staggering. His business and personal moral corruption stands out larger than the worst of his tabloid headlines.

I'd endorse that review. It's a great read and pulls few punches.
