How low can it go?!?!......and will we ever see Mr. Murdoch hanging from under the Blackfriar's Bridge with bricks in his pocket?...doubt it...but there would be a modicum of 'street justice' were it to happen. He and his ilk and many named in this scandal have control over investigations and the Courts, so I wouldn't expect more than a few lowly scapegoats to end up with sentences or fines...the rest will do just dandy.....
Were Murdoch to be found hanging anywhere, with anything, or nothing, in his pockets, I would travel to Prague and sup a couple of bottles of fine wine with you in celebration!!
But people like him tend to live long and fulsome lives.
It's a sub-lunary world we live in and the Ruler protects his own.
Go figure...
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.
