Tim Ireland on tabloids, media, blogs and politics
Nyer, nyer… you can’t have it
Martin Rosenbaum, the latest BBC blogger, may want to cast an eye over this:
Independent – No 10 refuses to release details of Blair’s dealings with Murdoch: A reader of The Independent, who tried to obtain details of “communications, correspondence and minutes” between Mr Blair, his advisers and Mr Murdoch since 1997, was first told that it would be too expensive to provide under the guidelines of the 2000 Act. When he narrowed down his request to cover a one-year period, he was told that the information would not be released anyway.
Just one reason why we’re not pissing about with an FOI request as we follow the money over at Backing Blair.
(Right… enough chit-chat… back to the data.)
