Leveson inquiry - Rupert Murdoch dropped Lord Patten's book to curry favour with Chinese

telegraph.uk.co - Rupert Murdoch dropped Lord Patten's book about his time as Hong Kong governor to "curry favour" with the Chinese leadership, the Leveson Inquiry heard. Lord Patten said the media mogul made a "commercial decision" to stop his publishing house, HarperCollins, publishing the memoir because he feared it would damage his efforts to expand his business into China. He told the hearing: "Plainly, Mr Murdoch took the view that publishing a book which was critical of the Chinese leadership would not improve his chances, so he instructed HarperCollins to drop the book on the grounds that it was no good. "Plainly, there was much evidence to suggest that that wasn't the view of the main editor at HarperCollins."
