What had owning 3 newspapers with no overlap got the slightest thing to do with owning a broadcaster, that he already owns a large chunk of. Any decision was BEFORE Leveson, so how could the decision be influenced either way by something hadn't fully come to light. Even then, how is it that somebody(Blair & Brown) can successfully claim ignorance of what is going on, in their name and in their office, but somebody else(ie not a Labour MP) gets blamed for something occurring on the other side of an ocean. Murdoch gets the 'blame' anyway with anything connected to BSkyB, so what would change?
