With a single paragraph, newspaper retracts key Murdoch allegation
One the most serious allegations made during the tabloid scandals has been that Murdoch's tabloid The Sun had procured medical records of a Prime Minister's son without authorization. Today the liberal London newspaper The Guardian, which originally trumpeted the allegation on its front page, today carried a single paragraph retraction on Page 36. Liberals are always quick to scoff at Fox's claim to be "fair and balanced." The words pot, kettle and black come to mind.
