I have to agree. Very strange indeed

re: [Update] The News Corp scandal
 

The clear issue here is that Rupert Murdoch nefarious influence went to the core of the political establishment in this country and now we must break the 30 year old hold that he has had on this country once and for all because if we don't then we will have failed totally.

Its shocking just how many papers were involved and should murdoch be closing any paper found to be involved somehow i don't think he will. The NOTW was the sacrificial lamb that was to be used to try and defuse the issue and it now looks like that was a waste of time.

Agreed

This surely now has to raise the issue of the Conservative party's election campaign and how much use this hacking was put to, leading up to the elction.

Well the rumour is now that he could sell the whole of News International to try to get out of this crisis.

In years to come the dictionary will have the following line

News international = A now defunct media company that was discovered to have hacked almost everyone's phones but there own. :)

How is this woman still in her job?

re: [Update] The News Corp scandal
 

There is no limit to how far these people will go to get information to try and destroy people's lives and with that in mind is it any wonder anyone is hesitant about taking them on. I think calling for this or that political leader to explain or be accountable should wait till as much as we can know is known. I have a nasty feeling very few high ranking politicians are going to come out of involvement with rupert murdoch for certainly the last twenty years cleanly.

What is becoming clear is this wasn't one paper or one rogue pi it was endemic it was seen as an ok way to get information regardless of the law and that has to be fully investigated and people prosecuted. Sadly i think we have only scratched the tip of a very large iceberg here there is so much more to come out so many more victims and it is for those i have true sympathy and feelings at this time.

Political axe grinding will come later no worries about that but right now i think the focus needs to be on the victims of this, be they the ones who were hacked or the sacrificial lambs to be slaughtered hoping to put this to bed of which NOTW were the first but i doubt the last.

Indeed

She must have something on Rupert and / or James for them to continue to support her.

Who'd have thought the Murdoch's would have closed their top selling tabloid when they had a ready made scapegoat. There's certainly a lot more to this and her.
