Fox News unable to operate, because Newscorp are a bunch of crooks? Now THAT would be worth popping a trash-can-sized bag of popcorn for.

If I’m understanding that article from The Independent correctly - and I’m not even remotely claiming I understand the nuances of the law - News Corp could be found by a British Court to be, in essence, a criminal enterprise, somewhat analogous to RICO statutes in the US, which in turn could lead to the FCC pulling Fox News Channel’s broadcasting license; or such is the concern of the News Corp corporate honchos in the United States.

Imagine that happening sometime in 2015! Just in time for the 2016 elections. Indeed, pass that trash-can-sized bag of popcorn over here.
