Regardless of Corbyn, having a biased media is never a "meh" situation. What if the next guy or gal gets the same treatment? Is it their fault because they failed to win over Murdoch?
You can't get to power without support of the press (not just Murdoch, but that helps).
Once you get to power you get your chance to take on the press.
Trying to take on the press without being in power, one is impotent and definitely going to fail.
I'm giving up on Labour. I've been an independent voter all my life and voted for good policy, vision, philosophy and the pragmastism to get shit done. But Labour is the jokes today and even though I think my local Labour MP is great... this Corbyn stuff is ridiculous. The man needs to take on the job that he has, not fuck around acting idealistic and lashing out when he doesn't get his way. This is the job, now go shine or get the hell out of the way.
Yeah there's bias. Yeah Murdoch and a lot of the press is quite right wing. Play the game, beat them at it... then obliterate them. But trying to obliterate them when you're not in power... what a waste. Oh the huge manatee, etc.

I haven't read the report, but I suspect they've measured with this type of thing in mind.
