Murdoch probably has/had his own TIA shop in action at Newscorp

TIA = Total Information Awareness

We know for sure:

1) His people http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/jul/04/milly-dowler-family-phone-hacking">listened to recorded cell phone voicemails of a missing and murdered child.

2) His people http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2012441/News-World-hacked-dead-hero-soldier-Captain-James-Philippsons-emails.html ">intercepted and read emails of dead UK soldiers.

3) His people http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-20078948-245/reports-u.k-paper-paid-police-to-ping-phones/ ">obtained the location of people (like the royal family) by paying for their cell phone triangulation information

The only thing missing would be for them to use a pretty easy hack to http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/29/researchers-eavesdrop-on-encrypted-gsm-call-all-you-need-is-a/">LISTEN IN TO ACTUAL PHONE CALLS.

Do you think his people didn't take that final step?

1. He also paid bribes to police as standard practice.

Who got that money HERE? And what investigations were distorted because of it?

2. It should be an open and shut Foreign Corrupt Practices Act case for Holder

Let's see what happens..

4. Doesn't look like Holder is going to indict Rupert Murdoch or Clarence Thomas.

If that turns out to be the case, there is no US Department of Justice. There is the US Department of Protecting the Rich, the Powerful and the Right-wing.

End of illusion. Time to rethink options.

5. We're talking about AG Holder? Then nothing will happen.

3. Did this behavior contribute to the paparazzi houding

Princess Diana to death? Looks likely.

6. She died in '97. I'm sure folks paid for her location info on a regular basis

If the police had a rep back then for giving info for cash, then paparazzi and their ilk surely paid.
