British PM Cameron to Hold Emergency Session in Growing Phone-Hacking Scandal

British Prime Minister David Cameron has announced plans to hold an emergency session of parliament on Wednesday to discuss the growing phone-hacking scandal that has threatened Rupert Murdoch’s media empire and rocked the British government. On Sunday, British detectives arrested Rebekah Brooks, the former head of Murdoch’s British newspaper arm, on suspicion of intercepting communications and corruption. Hours later, Metropolitan Police Commissioner Paul Stephenson resigned following criticism of the handling by police of the phone hacking scandal. Meanwhile, in Washington, Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Senate Democrat, has called for congressional hearings and investigations of Murdoch’s media empire in the United States.

U.S. Senator Dick Durbin: "What’s going on in England is startling—to think of the extent that they went to to break the law to try to report a story. We need to follow through with the FBI investigation and also with congressional investigation."

1. I've read Guardian Site, Al Jazerra and BBC...this was a Great Report from Goodman...and it would

have saved me a lot of time...because she had all the high points and from the sources. It's truly a good watch for folks who don't have time to read through DU Threads or the reports from Guardian in print ...but want to keep up on it.
