Yeah, but Murdoch owns TalkTV (it's mostly a simulcast of his TalkRadio) and GBNews, a part-owner of which is John Malone, which Olbermann keeps telling us is paste-eater Chris Licht's ventriloquist through his controlling interest of WBD, is trying to be (within the impartiality guidelines of Ofcom) the Fox News of the UK. So I say F 'em up the A, even if the monarchy is an outdated institution that needs to go.
