To be honest it didn't really achieve a great deal. The Murdoch papers still have a pretty heavy influence over British politics - they stuck with Boris long after he should've been done, it was only when they turned on him it that he was finished, for example.

I remember seeing murdoch in that select committee having to answer questions. That was something unprecedented(and almost a custard pie that arguably swung things in his favour). But no long term difference NOTW closed but then I think they started publishing the Sun on Sunday instead? NI/BSkyB merger was scuppered but now its back on the cards I think?
