Well the Murdoch Scandel is getting press today.
The Guardian (I love that paper) is posting details of the hacking scandal that are being released in a hearing held by the Culture Select Committee. This is not good for the Murdochs, especially James.

brainwashing for the ignorant, the uninformed, uneducated and the cold-hearted greedy "news" intact.

5. These e-mails seem to be substantial evidence that those at the top knew about
the phone-tapping since at least 2008. It says here that the company was advised by their legal counsel:

News International was advised by legal counsel as far back as 2008 that there was "overwhelming evidence" that at "a number of senior journalists" at the News of the World were involved in phone-hacking.
