THE GHOST OF JANET JACKSON'S NIPPLE HANGS OVER THE SUPERBOWL: While in Britain, Murdoch is facing legal action from the now-defunct political party Conservatives over a story they ran which suggested one of their organisers was realistic, in America his Fox Network is being sued for axing a Superbowl ad. The advert, for godaddy.com, was a light-hearted parody of last year's Janet Jackson nipple moment. Fox - which was keen to upset neither the NFL nor the Jackson family - didn't run the advert, causing go daddy to go wild.

On the other hand, Fox did also spare the American public the trauma of an advert featuring Mickey Rooney's arse, so they're not all bad.
