 In the U.S. of A., it's a different story, and it cannot be understated. Here, Murdoch's sins were less sensational -- but more important, arguably a matter of life and death on some stories. With his most audacious move, the invention of the Fox News Channel, Murdoch and his minions created a vortex of misinformation and emotion draped in an American flag that changed a nation's politics for the worse. That affects a lot more people than phone hacking, no matter how heartless that was.

When will America learn, as England did, that we have been hacked and hijacked by a fake news agency, with an agenda for gazillionairs, vs the American people, that is a thinly disguised giant propanda machine?  The fact that otherwise, good, decent people, through naivety and ignorance have been bamboozeled has never been more clear. When will the US learn what became obvious to Britain?  Not soon enough, I'm sure.
