1 Elizabeth Warren’s proposal, discussed further in Chapter 9, of CEO criminal liability for negligent stewardship of a criminal corporation would be another path to prosecution of some future Pope.

3 I say ‘sometime’ because Rupert Murdoch has been on and off in his support for Hillary Clinton, depending on who was in power, and has not returned calls to Tony Blair in recent years, allegedly because of a relationship that became too close between Blair and Murdoch’s former wife Wendi Deng. Murdoch accuses Deng of being a Chinese spy who used him to get close to Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka. The FBI warned the Trump family about this, if one believes Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal (O’Keefe and Viswanatha 2018). Bill Clinton, of course, had even more unsavoury differential associations with Wall Street vice in the form of Jeffrey Epstein, who offered him financial stabilisation advice when he was in the White House and frequently provided his corporate aircraft to Clinton for fundraising for the Clinton Foundation after he left the White House. Murdoch’s influence across the West and beyond is based on two simple business insights. One is to befriend and support through media influence whoever is in power or is likely to win it (differential association of the power of capital with the power of political winners). The other insight is that there is more money to be made by telling media consumers lies they like to hear than there is in quality journalism. Facebook adapted this insight with even greater market success.
