John Major's views on Rupert Murdoch in yesterday's blog were mild compared to an article by John Pilger in this week's New Statesman about his influence down under.
In an article attacking the Australian servility to the United States,he claims that Murdoch's influence "has been critical in control of dissent"
"Whenever Howard or one of his more oofish ministers want to bend an institution or smear an opponent,they carry out the task in alliance with a pack of mostly rabid Murdoch commentators"
And he continues
"Schoolteachers who do not fly the flag music concert organisers who discourage the attendance of racist thugs wrapped in teh flag are at risk of a dose of Murdoch poison"
