According to some estimates, Murdoch phone-hacking scandal involves some 4000 victims. Think the authorities now in control of the U.S. investigation into the damage Murdoch's News Corp, particularly its Fox News and cinema industry (Fox News, Fox Channels, 20th Century Fox) inflicted on U.S. citizens will consider the humbled collective will of freed Black Americans?   Our humbled elite Black leadership is so quiet now.   I wonder why?

 

One need not destroy one's enemy. One need only destroy his [or her] willingness to engage ( Sun Tzu).

 

Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation has enjoyed the power to define for the world and specifically for Black Americans the meaning of freedom, irrevocably altering the spirit of resistance in the U.S.

 

It is amazing what a "2-minutes hate" session, every hour for 24 hours will do to whip down a population of people while whipping up others here and aboard with mug-shot images of a "Black" rapists on the loose and headlines announcing a "manhunt" for a "Black" male killer. Everyone hates violence and in a world where Blackness is engrained as always suspect, everyone hates Blackness! Blackness is Violence! Fear rules everyone and blinds all until Bush the Second illegally invades Iraq, or white activists in Chicago and Minnesota area raided by the FBI or 100, 000 mostly white Wisconsinites protests pension cuts and the end of collective bargaining.

 

Or now when the Murdoch Machine hacks the cell phone of kidnapped little girls and maybe, too, the families of 9/11 victims. Otherwise, few American citizens seemed to notice that the either fired or "retired" investigative journalists disappeared overnight, replaced by attractive, "sexy" anchors selling "shock and awe" and American "enemies" in between celebrity gossip and scandal. Corporate advertisers fill in the "news" gaps with images of America--a multicultural and a diverse America where citizens of all races, suddenly, just get along!

 

Only freed Blackness with visible traces of the operation of purification are worthy of a human interest story.

 

The fascist propaganda machine won the "hearts and souls" of Germans, Europeans, Americans, and even the Jewish elite, so its trains from Eastern Europe and its gas chambers could operate day and night.

 

The Murdoch News Corporation did not arrive in the U.S. with a new breed of Edward R. Murrows or I.F. Stones. Murdoch Machine gave the world hackers--phone hackers, yes, but worse he gave the world mind hackers! And it more than tweaked with the Black psyche! It manipulates Black opinion and behavior to benefit corporate interests.
