Of course it will. The Leveson Inquiry proved that the press and politicians have a far too close a relationship because we still don't have a really independent press oversight body and the second half of the Leveson inquiry got kicked into the long grass. They aren't going to upset the owners of media outlets that donate to the Tory or Labour parties.
