    Newscorp phone hacking fallout



    People are getting their asses handed to them in this...that is good, it sounds like the tabloids have been out of control in the UK for a while. Who knows if this will change much in the long run though.

    For sure. Not just the tabloids though it's the whole rotten establishment. The unholy trinity of power,police and press that our beloved mrs thatcher used so effectively as a weapon against the people, and nothing has changed for the better since those days imo. (the miner's strike and the wapping dispute specifically)

    We'll see eh? If events of the last couple of weeks don't change anything then nothing can.

    This is coming out in the UK right now but don't forget these same fuckers own a good chunk of US media too so i'd say it's a long way from being done yet.

      I think there will be some changes made as a result.

        Seem's the shit's gettin' real the last couple of days. The head of Scotland Yard and also a 2nd person have resigned, plus Murdoch and the redhead are testifying tomorrow in front of Parliment. Maybe Murdoch will feel the squeeze for all those years of his agenda being pushed behind the scenes...hopefully some karma might bite his ass.

                    The powers that may be...

                    But doesn't this shit happen everywhere?
                    Pretty sure Murdoch owns something in each continent of the world. And his policies goes without saying.
                    Really is a pity about the death. Shits fucked up.

                    Another interesting twist this story has is the inclusion of David Cameron. who now resides in 10 Downing Street, who formally hired Andy Coulson (former News of the World editor). And now the commissioner of Metro Police now resigns.

                    The commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Paul Stephenson, used his resignation speech to turn on the Prime Minister , saying Mr Cameron was at risk of being compromised by his closeness to the former News of the World editor Andy Coulson.

                    Following Mr Stephenson's departure, his assistant commissioner, John Yates, who was in charge of the heavily criticised 2009 review into the original phone-hacking investigation, stood down yesterday.

                      I've been following this story very closely over the last 3 weeks. (And for about 3 years previous) And even I couldn't summarise how this story keeps unfolding. It's been truly mental.

                          I really can't see Rebekah Brooks going down without taking a few high up peeps with her if her reputation of being a supreme bitch and ball breaker is true. I'm looking at you James Murdoch.

                            If this finally means the downfall of the hussy-ridden "controlled opposition" media outlet, it can only be a good thing. The remainder of the zombie public can officially shut off their TVs and not be foolishly lead along any longer (aside from the few who are "leaning forward" over @ MSNBC as they perch precariously over the precipice and try to give us all one final shove).

                              MPs suspended their questioning of Rupert Murdoch after the media mogul was lunged at by a protester.
