"Unbiased Media?"

(Not what Sir Rupert peddles)

Sir Rupert Murdoch, pompous news owning toad,
Was told by the Brits to hit the road.
Sadly for us the road that he followed
Includes two more news outlets that he plans to swallow.

More of his right wing extremist views?
More "unbiased" Murdochian news?
Obtained illegally by his minions hacking?
How long till Sir Rupert buys his way into fracking?

And anything else that our law opposes
Sir Rupert is into and will be coming up roses.
L.A., Chicago you'll be holding your noses.
Farewell, goodbye, all sane status quoses.

Whatever Sir Rupert wants, somehow he gets,
But let's make sure that no one forgets
Those wily Brits cooked Sir Rupert's goose
When they found the old boy still plays fast and loose.

Break old restrictions? For him that's a cinch.
How does the old mogul acquire his exceptions? Inch by inch.
What is he looking for? Does he need more power?
To subject us to more of Bushie and Karl Rove's Happy Hour?
