Today Guardian Straya has an article https://www.theguardian.com/media/2023/apr/22/crikey-how-a-little-australian-website-stared-down-murdoch-mighty-news-corp on @crikey_news prevailing over #MurdochTheWanker, called, in part, "The mouse that roared". Whilst i'm always happy to read of all murdoch woes & problems, this sub-editorial headline choice especially delighted me, being ofc an implied shout-out to the much-ignored but IMO lovely old #PeterSellers film https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mouse_That_Roared_(film) 💜

The only TV movie ever directed by Joseph L.
