Rupert Murdoch blasts 'lies and libels' against News Corp

Rupert Murdoch has launched a fightback on Twitter against what he described as "lies and libels" against News Corporation, attacking "enemies" including "old toffs and rightwingers".


The media mogul tweeted three times in the early hours of Thursday morning London time attacking his critics.


In his first tweet he said: "Seems every competitor and enemy piling on with lies and libels. So bad, easy to hit back hard, which preparing."

News Corp accuses BBC of 'gross misrepresentation' over pay-TV claims

Quote:
Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation has accused the BBC of "gross misrepresentation" over the Panorama documentary alleging that its former subsidiary NDS was involved in helping computer hackers to undermine ITV Digital.


Chase Carey, News Corp's chief operating officer and Murdoch's right-hand man, said in a statement issued early on Thursday that Monday's Panorama had "presented manipulated and mischaracterised emails to produce unfair and baseless accusations".


"The BBC's Panorama programme was a gross misrepresentation of NDS's role as a high quality and leading provider of technology and services to the pay-TV industry, as are many of the other press accounts that have piled on – if not exaggerated – the BBC's inaccurate claims," Carey said.


"Panorama presented manipulated and mischaracterised emails to produceunfair and baseless accusations. News Corporation is proud to have worked with NDS and to have supported them in their aggressive fight against piracy and copyright infringement."
Aint this is just typical of Murdoch and his cronies.
