Chilcot, Coulson, corrupt cops and Rupert Murdoch

Beyond Ames' article, it should be pointed out that the military families jeered Blair's belated, half-hearted attempt at an apology as 'Too Late'. Good on them.
The BBC and Sky TV acted as one in dumping the Chilcot Inquiry for 'news' that Andy Coulson had publicly announced his resignation, followed by a flurry of media pimps. Andrew Gilligan said this was an own-goal by the Conservative Party as it distracted from the embarrassing news for the Labour Party of Blair's second coming onto Chilcot. That is nonsense in my opinion, this was shit-shovellers Friday, where one Murdoch employ ( David Cameron) distracted from another Murdoch employees ( Blairs) embarrassment. The BBC and Sky knew the Coulson statement was coming and they shelved the Chilcot coverage not only for the anouncement, but for the pre-announcement that there would be an announcement.
And out of the media abusers who were paraded on the TV to distract from Blair, only one said anything of interest. Paul McMullan, the NotW dominatrix who was coincidentally on hand to give Hugh Grant a lift when his car broke down, denigrated Coulson and claimed other 'journalists' denigrated Coulson, for not sticking up for journalists. He said tabloid journalists have a right not just to hack celebrity phones for 'public interest material', ie gossip, but to pay off police-officers for stories of interest. He was the one gimp willing to be indignant in public that they shouldn't be above any laws. And this is the story that no other journalist broke, the fact the media buy police officers regularly and think this is in the public interest. Corrupt cops such as Andy Hayman, who covered up the NotW crimes in exchange for a well-paid post within the Murdoch empire, or the cops who leaked the Sheridan police interviews to the BBC.
Today's coverage is proof perfect. The cops, the corporate journalists, the governing politicians all have a price, and the man who pays that price currently is Rupert Murdoch. Democracy my arse, this is a sicker kleptocracy than Tunisia ever was.
