Pixelated Semantics

A dirty digger at the graveside

"Ironic" is probably the mildest description for Rupert Murdoch reading the last rites over the corpse of the British Press he helped to gut in the 80's. Reuters, one of the great wire services convened the event at "the journalists' church" St Bride's, as the 154-year-old bureau is the last major news organisation with headquarters on Fleet Street to pack its bags. Unionists and journo's who have lost their jobs to Murdochian "modernisation" over the years would have another expression for it I suspect: perhaps something like Jack the Ripper giving eulogies in Whitechapel.
