Sainsbury and the Leveson Inquiry: https://www.ukcolumn.org/article/leveson-inquiry

Media Standards Trust director Martin Moore

Just track the funders for his Media Standards Trust. Esmee Fairburn, Gatsby (Lord Sainsbury), Joseph Rowntree (with funds of £millions), Eranda Foundation (Rothschild), Pearson Foundation (yes, David Bell’s old company), Nuffield, Scott Trust (Rothschild & Guardian Media Group) and others. Just what are the real interests of Moore’s powerful backers?

Another clue comes from the links between Moore and Will Moy, budding press and media critic from Fullfact.org. A pushy little organisation funded by four of the very same funders who fund the Media Standards Trust (see Fullfact article opposite). Just who did set up Fullfact and why? Could it be that the aim is for Rothschild, Sainsbury, Pearson and other rich powerful shadowy figures to create and inflame the press and media saga, for Leveson to introduce the very controls they want in the first place?
