Murdoch - The consultation process ends on Monday.

Dear Secretary of State,

I am deeply concerned that News Corporation's bid for full ownership of BSkyB would harm our democracy. I strongly urge you to reject it.

The proposals that you are consulting on would undermine our media quality and diversity.
The temporary safeguards you propose for News Corporation are weak and can be easily circumvented.

Also News Corporation would still have strong control over Sky News through its shareholding, its financing and its control of satellite access 

Rupert Murdoch has exploited his media power for political influence and opinion polls show that 9 out of 10 members of the public oppose his takeover of BSkyB.

I object to the proposed deal and call on you to immediately refer it to the Competition Commission.

Please.
