Rupert Murdoch says that he is not responsible for the fiasco.

[LiberalFighter]

Wow! What is he thinking?

[somone]

1. Of course not - he was "misled by very bad people at a very low level"

“The board has been misled, as has top management been misled, by very bad people at a very low level in the organization.”

[Lint Head]

3. It was people who are on a lower level of human existence than he.

Murdoch is more superior than all other human beings.

10. Then he's not adequately managing the compnay and should be fired.

Tired of CEO's who demand outrageous pay and then claim they weren't responsible for bad stuff, only for good stuff.

I know he's a big owner of the company but even his token board should fire him.

2. quote from tweet i just got

"Rupert Murdoch does not take responsibility for UK scandal; says 'people I trusted' are to blame"

Typical right wing, buck passing scumbag!!!!!

4. I believe the correct line is....

"I should have had everyone on the general staff shot, like Stalin did!" -- Adolf Hitler, in 'Downfall'.

5. The buck apparently does not stop with him

why bother when someone else can take the blame

[JuniperLea]

6. Why should he be held responsible for his own actions?

Sounds stupid, doesn't it? That's the thinking of someone who feels they are above the law.

7. Throw Your Underlings Under the Bus

Save your own skin at any cost why don't you?

8. Conservatives NEVER take responsibility for their actions.

Never. It's always someone else's fault.

[theophilus]

11. But they always harp on "responsibility" and "accountability". Hypocrites. n/t

[Maccagirl]

9. What about the "anything goes" culture you've created?

Your empire is a reflection of you, Rupert Murdoch.
