The Murdoch empire's dirty tactics just brought down 5 more of their top journalists, bringing the total number of arrests to 29. It's clear: Murdoch must have known about the crimes his employees were committing. The House of Lords is debating Murdoch's fitness to own our media in 24 hours. If we raise our voices now, we can push regulators to revoke Murdoch's licence to operate and end his dirty dealings for good. Click below to join in:

"IMO the crux of this issue is that everyone is influenced by the media but it is how as an individual you interpret the information provided."
Which is what I've been saying all along, but was being told point-blank that Fred and Mr 4Times somehow acquired their information without that 3rd party and I was somehow redefining their whole lives by saying that this was probably not the case. I'm over the abuse now though.

I wouldn't back our current team to beat anyone at the moment! Would gladly take a point.

Hopefully we'll be on a high after winning the cup final, we need a confidence boost right about now.

What's the odds for the CCup finalists? And how are Cardiff doing in their league?
Though league form could go out of the window in a one off like this.

Read Manufacturing Consent by Noam Chomski for a brilliant analysis of how the media create a set of accepted norms within a society to suit their agenda. We have to accept and live by those norms unless we are prepared to stand out from the crowd.

"We have to accept and live by those norms unless we are prepared to stand out from the crowd."
TOOR is doing that at the moment on a few threads and being lambasted for his opinions.

If we play well, we'll beat Cardiff, we have more quality then them (just ) but you're right, all form and quality goes out the window and it's whoever holds their luck best in a cup final.
