    His benefactor, Ginar the Hutt, told Mudrock the lesser, at a channel x bored meeting, that she was none to keen on the Simpsons, and did not think it was suitable family viewing.
    WTF?

    I wonder if CD at 1.57 laughing about trolling is actually AB conducting some damage control.

    Further to that, AB/CD isn’t unlike Kubrick’s HAL/IBM.

    It wasn’t the communists or the barbarians that took his freedom of speech away, it was the capitalists!

    Brizben makes an excellent point. Mvrdoch has killed freedom of speech and the right to an opinion. Imagine that.

    As a quasi-anonymous comment-poster, I am outraged that I can no longer… Oh, hang on…

    So “Some citizen’s freedom of speech is NOT more equal than others”?

    As an old Greek once said:

    “The true test of a leader is whether his followers will adhere to his cause from their own volition, enduring the most arduous hardships without being forced to do so, and remaining steadfast in the moments of greatest peril.”
    Xenophon

    Now is their time of testing. Will they be steadfast and true? Or will they just have a rant at the pub?
