[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]What is remarkable to me is that they actually bothered to admit it.  Maybe someone said they were going to come down hard on Murdoch or Sky TV.[/quote]

I'm surprised by the retraction also. The largest investor in News Corp after Murdoch is Al-Waleed bin Talal. a member of the Saudi royal family and, obviously, a Muslim. Recently, Murdoch tweeted:

"Maybe most Moslems peaceful, but until they recognize and destroy their growing jihadist cancer they must be held responsible."

which suggests that even peaceful Muslims should be held responsible for the violence of other Muslims. This idea of collective guilt is not something limited to Murdoch, but it is a dangerous way of thinking. After a week or so Murdoch retracted the tweet. Almost at the same time, Fox retracted its allegations. It's possible that Murdoch's investment partner reached the end of his patience.

That would mean that Christians need to be held responsible for Anders Breivik, and that right wingers and libertarians need to be held responsible for cop-killing sovereign citizens. [/quote]
