Heroes and villains of 2011Who were your heroes or villains of the last year, and why? Who inspired you? Who had you kicking the cat across the room? They don't have to be well known, you might even want to laud the achievements of your binman. (Note that "Nick Clegg nuff said" answers puts you straight onto our naughty list)

I hate to agree,but it is true that, in the UK at least, Murdoch's corporations are giving the proles what they want (quite why anyone wants to read The Sun, or pay Sky to beam adverts into their homes, is beyond me).
Bit of a viscious circle, I suppose (discounting any conspiracy theories about our glourious leaders wanting us to remain ill educated and easily manipulated - though there's propbably some truth to that, too) - we want it, even though we'd be better of without it.

And, y'know, they're the Party's most influential sponsor, so they're very much here to stay.(

I don't think of it as a conspiracy theory,more an endlessly self-fulfilling circle of shit. Murdoch has crafted an environment in which people want to buy his shit papers, because they're all thick as fuck. The thicker they are, the more they buy his papers. The more they buy his papers, the thicker they are. He's a genius really.
