(13,524 posts)The British offices of the Murdoch entertainment empire 21st Century Fox have been raided by investigators from the European Commission, The Daily Telegraph can reveal.
It is understood that competition watchdogs gained access to the companys offices in Hammersmith, west London, early today to seize documents and computer records.
The precise nature of the confidential investigation, which is believed to be in its early stages, is unclear. The building is home to Fox Networks, the companys channels business.
(Thats all I can read before paywall, but YAY!)

(9,670 posts)Many of us assume that FOX colludes with the Russians, the Republicans and the Rich. They're not a news organization, the law has established that, but their entertainment sounds a whole lot like news to most of their ardent listeners.
If we're going to do this, let's do it right. Let's root out the true enemies of the state: FOX, RNC, NRA, individual Congresspersons and staffers, Trump administration, Trump campaign and transition, and all the other cancerous filth that has maligned a nation. If we don't pull out every single fiber of the cancer, it'll grow back. Get it all, Mr. Mueller, get it all.
Thank you!

(10,303 posts)He's still trying to buy the bit of Sky TV that he doesn't own. But then he's selling to Disney.. and Comcast are in for the bidding.
But Murdoch is not a fit and proper person to hold a TV broadcasting licence. Maybe not even a dog licence.

(22,803 posts)Are they going to take down Fox News, too? Is that too much to hope? Murdoch's use of his media empire to influence elections and public opinion in multiple countries has been a danger to democracies for decades.
