Summary: The act exempted uneconomic businesses from being referred, and Murdoch argued that the two papers were indeed running at a loss. Similarly, the then Sunday Times editor, Harry Evans - who had put together a consortium to bid for the paper - also knew it was profitable and later wrote, without refutation, that Biffen had distorted the figures.
