Donuel. Here in The UK there us always the danger of that and corporations do try to influence unduly, but at least for the moment it appears to be in the interest of the media to expose it and the voting population seems to be sufficiently outraged enough for governments to be less blasé about lobbying bias. There is some, but dancing to the corporate tune happens more in the papers than in Westminster. (Over to you Bridge.)
