trial by sky news
Today They Said...
Sky News Announcer: "More allegations have emerged about disgraced broadcaster Jimmy Savile. We'll be back after the break with the latest statements from his victims."
James Healy: "Disgraced? Really? By who? Supposed victims, surely? Unproven allegations, yes? Or has Sky News tried this case in its own star chamber court, Judge Rupert Murdock presiding? I'd be quite curious about the current state of play in the legal proceedings featuring Sky News itself and Rupert Murdock's other companies. You know. The allegations, hugely corroborated by evidence and witnesses willing to go on the record with their full names and addresses in accusing still living Chief Executives, Management and Staff at News International Corporation (owner of Sky), that News International, its employees, management, and staff, along with the staff of every newspaper in Ireland and Britain, routinely bribed police officers, blackmailed politicians and celebrities, and tapped the phones of private citizens. These activities by the still living Rupert Murdock and his still living friends are surely more of a threat to the very existence of our democracy and our freedoms, than say, the unproven, unverified, untried accusatiions levelled by anonymous career criminals against dead celebrities in return for undisclosed financial payments from the above mentioned blackmailing police bribing phone tapping bankrupt media groups. I mean, have I lost the plot here? Are we actually handing over the judicial process to the Daily Mirror, ITV, the Daily Mail Rupert Murdock, Sky News et al?"
