Oh god, Rupert trying to insinuate that this is all a conspiracy to bring down the free press. Instead of an investigation into highly illegal actions performed by his company.

News Corp shares are up 3-4% today, trending up during the hearing so far - I suspect (in my near-total financial ignorance) this means "the markets" think RM is on the way out.
