Don’t Mess With Murdoch

The Guardian reports that News of the World whistleblower Sean Hoare has been found dead in his home. (HT2 EPJ) Check out this comment, which I can explain and find suspicious: Hertfordshire police would not confirm his identity, but the force said in a statement: “At 10.40am today [Monday 18 July] police were called to […]

Bob Murphy, the Best Ideologue Money Can Buy
