Rupertgate Wednesday - Imagining The Domino.

The latest on the Rupert Murdoch/Newscorp/News International Scandal with the sudden withdrawal in a takeover bid by Newscorp of BskyB, amid allegations and further revelations in the continuing scandal.

No stranger to scandal but this one is a bit different, even for Teflon.

yesterday there were calls by Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Sen. Jay Rockefeller to begin hearings on Newscorps' possible violations here while stockholders in Delaware are making their discomfort known. It has also been mentioned by various sources there is a wave of gripping fear overtaking Fox News at the moment.

As was indicated last week when the bomb was dropped over the closing of News Of The World, the story is changing constantly and quickly. At the rate this is going, it may change again by Friday.

But for the moment, here is BBC Radio 4's PM Program with the latest as of this morning (afternoon in the UK).

Stay tuned.

Technical note: there is a portion of a 1989 interview with Murdoch missing. It was missing on the PM broadcast.
