The blockade of the WEF in 2000, the blockades of the stock exchanges on May Day in 2001, Adbusters call to 'Occupy Wall St' were all just wild ideas nobody knew would have such an impact. Everybody says we gotta do something about Murdoch and it ends up being left to politicians and 'leaders'. Maybe Murdoch's empire is just a house of cards that needs a push.
