Mr Burns is quite simply one of the most evil characters ever showcased on mainstream television. A megalomaniac of stupendous proportions, Mr Burns is the kind of psychopath that likes to scratch himself using Ivory from poached elephants, unleashes vendettas against the sun for giving Springfield free energy, and has been know to use the town of Springfield as his own dumping ground for toxic waste without even a modicum of care for the consequences. Even when it seems Burns has been humbled, he is back to his evil ways pretty much immediately. Lisa learned this the hard way when she thought she had turned Burns into an environmentalist but in reality he was slaughtering ocean life to use as industrial slurry. Its safe to say he takes enormous pride in the fact that he is the most evil man in the Simpsons Universe and is intimidated by nobody. Well almost nobody. There is one man who is more evil, powerful, and intimidating than Burns apparently and that is Rupert Murdoch the boss of NewsCorp and thus the boss of everyone involved with the Simpsons. In this clip it seems that even Mr Burns thinks that the power Rupert Murdoch wields is nuts, and he breaks the fourth wall just to let us know that even he is a little bit scared and prepared to be a yes man to Murdoch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qex6gd10eU
