UK: Investigate Murdoch!
To British Prime Minister Theresa May and Culture Secretary Karen Bradley:
As global citizens concerned at the influence of the Murdoch media empire over our governments and the media market, we call on you immediately to start the promised Leveson Two investigation into alleged corruption, and while this investigation is underway, prevent any massive expansion of Murdoch’s media business through the takeover of Sky. This proposed expansion should be referred to the telecoms regulator Ofcom to determine whether it is legal and in the public interest and whether Murdoch is “fit and proper” to hold a broadcasting license.

Rupert Murdoch has used Fox News, The Sun and the rest of his global media empire to block climate change action, fuel resentment against Muslims, and elect Donald Trump! Now he wants to take over another huge TV station in the UK. It’s time to draw a line in the sand!
The UK government is poised to launch an investigation into Murdoch’s dirty tactics and corruption, but Murdoch is pulling out all the stops to kill it off. A mass global petition, delivered direct to an official consultation which ends in days, could make it happen.
