As the Rupert Turns

In this afternoon's episode, word leaks that Rupert's company is making plans for what it do if his son James decides to step aside.

The way this Reuters article quotes people is hilarious. Here's my favorite part...
News Corp executives want to be prepared if he wants to "take a breather," one News Corp source said.

Takes a breather? Don't you mean "gets indicted" or "gets thrown under the bus by his own father". Hate to be a stickler for appropriate language here, but c'mon now.

By the way, As The Rupert Turns has now had enough episodes to warrant it's own label. All of the episodes since the Murdochs testified before Parliament can now be viewed by clicking the label.
