Caught up with Carole Cadwalladr's "The Power" post from 18 Dec. called "Who is 'the money behind the money?'" about the "sale" of the Observer to Tortoise Media.
I feel sick. My late husband was a subscriber to the Guardian (I am, too) precisely because it was journalism independent of wealthy backers with "other interests than journalism". I wish dead people really could come back to haunt people and make them see the errors of their ways. He would have had a blast at Waddesdon Manor. Or maybe ghosts think "glad I don't have to deal with that sh*tshow"?
