Jack Straw Says Rupert Murdoch Was Willing To Play Political Leaders

Jack Straw the veteran labour cabinet minister told the Leveson Inquiry "Mr Murdoch has enjoyed the fact he has been willing to play with political leaders in a way others have not because their loyalty is predictable," he said. "He's very interested in power, for its own its sake," Straw added." And I think to help him consolidate his non-newspaper interests in this country." "The power that those print titles provide is much greater than 2% in the UK," he said. "If you're on the receiving end of it it felt like power".
