Taiwanese animators tell the story of Phone Hacking and Murdoch. (I think he's the shark) BRILLIANT |

Cartoon animated news.... It is really wrong in so many ways but this is brilliant. And they cut to the punch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGegvzU9S8U&feature=player_detailpage

What else is the Patriot Act but a legalization of hacking?
Your phone, indeed, all your activities, can be hacked by any number of secretive government agents who can do whatever they want with the information hacked from you.
Fox and Murdocks were doing nothing more than getting in on the action.

3. Kudos to you Snoutport |
|
when the first inklings appeared that this long simmering but slow moving investigation was about explode, you posted about it. I recced and read - but was still skeptical that anything could reach up the chain to Murdoch. Now I have a little more time and am riveted by the speed which things are happening - as covered by the Guardian blog.
Given the outsized influence on political discourse the Murdoch NewsCorp has here and elsewhere, the story has huge implications. I think the speed with which NoTW has gone toxic - already spreading to NewsInternational (UK) is stunning.
Keep up the insightful news reading and sharing and calling it to our collective attention. It is why I read DU nearly daily and have for the past 9+ years. I don't often have time to post anymore (right now is a brief anomoly) so you probably aren't familiar with me - so take it as praise, probably echoed by many other quiet DUers. Just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you.
Great video, btw.
