OF COURSE IT DID!!!!

Rupert Murdoch is one of the biggest media giants within the media world today. Murdoch is the major shareholder, chairman and managing director of News Cooperation (Woopidooo Bibliographies 2001). Beginning with newspapers, magazines and television stations in his native Australia, Murdoch expanded News Corp into the UK and US and Asian media markets .It is easy just to see from these facts that Murdoch is surely able to dictate what goes into his own press. Worldwide Murdoch owns over 70% of the circulation of print media (Woopidooo Bibliographies 2001). Within recent years he has become a prominent investor in television, the internet, the film industry and the media. OF COURSE with this vast amount of considerable power within the global media market he HAS wielded politicians and power figures in forming an alliance of media mates (Woopidooo Bibliographies 2001)… OTHERWISE 175 of his own newspapers WOULDN’T have supported the invasion in Iraq!!
