This is the home of the Boycott Murdoch campaign.

We registered this domain a few days ago, so we don't have a proper page yet.

Just in case you find this site before launch day, we've knocked up this shambolic bare-bones page in Notepad just to explain what we're up to.

==========

The plan for this site is to convince you:

- That Murdoch's tabloid news media (such as The Sun and Fox News) propagate a false image of the world, exaggerate news stories, and spin an agenda which fits Murdoch's business interests and highly conservative political outlook

- That Murdoch's media empire gives him an astronomically disproportionate amount of power, which is largely unaccountable

- That this power erodes our democracy

- That, as we do not have the ability to vote him out of power, we should do the next best thing: refuse to give money to anything produced or related to the Murdoch media empire, and raise awareness so that other people do the same.

==========

As well as giving people background information, we will give people concrete plans of action, from simple boycotts and letter writing, to demonstrations and campaign nights, as well as organising fun and interesting events to raise awareness. The plan is to bring anti-Murdoch campaigners together for effective action.

Also, we plan to update the site with any Murdoch related news, and to tweet it at @BoycottMurdoch. Please follow it for updates, we'll tweet when the site is finished.
