Can only be good news for me.
Maybe they have done anyway? Murdoch is still Chairman of Board of Directors, so there is a long way to go yet.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/jul/13/lord-justice-leveson-profile-hackingThe enquiry is set to have a wide remit covering newspapers, police and politicians. Few politicians can genuinly use the phrase 'I told you so' but they are all now coming out against Murdoch. The enquiry is also to look at News International and decide if they are 'fit and proper persons' to have ownership/control of news media.I doubt the enquiry will get near the full truth of the corruptness and criminality involved but since their first stage is expected to take a year and there is a second phase to follow which is likely to take yet another year it will, I'm pleased to believe, be at least 2 years before Murdoch starts his chase again.If you are interested Radio 4 on PM today is worth a listen. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b012fcyt/PM_12_07_2011/

I guess a few scores are being settled, not least for the expenses scandal.
