George Michael Blames Rupert Murdoch For Failure

Undercover.com.au reports George Michael has blamed the heavily conservative Rupert Murdoch controlled media in the negative reaction of his new single ‘Shoot The Dog’. “I’m probably the biggest celebrity to have sided (perhaps foolishly) with The Daily Mirror in recent years and I seem to be paying the price for it,” Michael said. “Not that I think it wasn’t worth it. This situation is more important than any record or any attack on me and I didn’t go into this with my eyes closed. I had a feeling I would get caught in the Sun / Mirror war zone but it never occurred to me that Murdoch’s other publications, specifically the NY Post would misrepresent myself or the reaction of the American people in general so enormously.”
