Sorry all, but it's rant time for me this a.m.
Well, it was never my newspaper of choice, I'm glad to say, but our Rupert has sacrificed a 168 year old institution to save one woman, with whom he seems to have a total obsession.
Most of the people losing their jobs @ the "News of the World" were never even working for the hallowed News International when the disgraceful events tookplace.
The notion that those at the top had no idea how their paper got so many good leads, for so many years, beggars belief, and anyway, the buck stops right there - or with Murdoch even.
The possible arrest of James Murdoch holds promise, as does the Coulson situation, but why the recent editor of the paper keeps "a" job even more powerful is laughable - except for those who lost
their jobs.
We now face the possible situation that Murdoch is considered a fit and proper person to take monopoly ownership of a major part of the UK media, with no responsibility for anything that goes on under his control.
Or any attractive red-headed person employed by him.....
Slime is a word that comes to mind - and then you look at the governments relationship with this creature.......
