Schechter: 'Murdoch represents Republicans in UK'
The British government has come under fire for advising media tycoon Rupert Murdoch's son, James about his bid to take full control of pay-TV giant BSkyB. The Leveson press ethics inquiry has learned that US based News Corporation under James Murdoch's leadership had close and frequent contact with advisors to Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt but Hunt has rejected the allegation.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Danny Schechter, media expert with mediachannel1.org, to share his opinion on this issue.
