Murdoch: The Mirth, the Movie and the Music

As more News International executives, including Rebekah Brooks, are arrested - worryingly just ahead of an appearance before an MPs' committee of enquiry on Tuesday, allowing her to possibly refuse to answer many of their questions - the mess that the British Establishment is now in has given rise to an element of grim humour on the web. Whilst we are still some way from seeing a radical transformation of the ownership and regulation of the print media in Britain, satire is providing a valuable tool to point up just how utterly awful the corruption at the heart of our nation really is.


But Murdoch has attracted some good satire for years. Enjoy this selection of just some of the humour on the Dirty Digger...
