I have absolutely no love at all for Rupert Murdoch and his buisiness practices whatsoever.
But for all the current journalisits working on NOTW i feel very sorry these were not the people that did those wicked things Rebekah Brooks/Wade ought to have gone instead, the jobs of the staff have gone whilst she remains to fig leaf the Murdochs which is disgusting. Yesterday Murdoch gave an interview in america in which he said Rebekah Wade had his full support as "He would not push innocent people under a bus" which is exactly what he done to 200 employees hipocriscy of the highest order.
But the NOTW is/was not all bad they had some good scoops.
The cheating pakistani cricketers may have never been caught had it not been for the news of the world and banned,Fergies access for cash to prince andrew,Sarahs Law for Sarah Payne,the snooker player boasting on camera he could throw matches Jeffrey Archer scandal ,ect ect.
As somebody said last night the news of the world had a budget big enough to expose real villains (i am hoping the villains who bought the paper down also get exposed eventually).
Putting aside my personal dislike for Murdoch and his buisness methods i for one will miss the NOTW possibly one of the only people on this thread who will.
Just a pity it was not owned by somebody other then the Dirty Digger.
A paper with a 168 year history that the Murdochs have run into the ground, not recently but 5 years ago.
