Darn those "harsh" words eh. Get with the programme journalists!
Drew, I have been particularly interested in Murdoch and his empire since the UK Parliamentary hearings on him and his son last year about phone tapping, when he (Murdoch) was repeatedly likened to the Mafia. So much so that it started to appear to be that this wasn't the use of a loose metaphor, but something more (I thought). I did some googling at the time and there was a mafia connection to Murdoch via one of his executives, as I remember.
Meanwhile, in your criminal practice, how common is a suicide by gunshot to the chest do you know? I ask because it seems to me to be a pretty difficult thing to do - possible but a contortion - bearing in mind the relative inflexibility of the wrist of most people? That's why most people shoot themselves in the temple or through the mouth isn't it?

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
