    It's really starting to kick off now.

    News International being told to drop their bid to buy BSkyB outright, being reported to the monopolies chaps.

    $6Bn wiped off Murdochs wealth due to share prices plummeting.

    Discussions in Parliament today and Gordon Brown speaking about the background to it.

    People being "invited" to parliamentary committees.

    Calls for independent inquiries into New Scotland Yard involvement and lack of action / investigation.

    This could easily keep growing and growing chaps.

    I would be glad to tune in here for your analysis, sir.

    You're a better read.

    The News Of The World & The Sun are toilets full stop
    With the News Of The World gone, let hope The Sun follows suit.

    The FBI are now investigating News International for hacking into the phones of 9/11 victims.

    Not one to indulge in schadenfreude (much) I confess to finding it hard to feel any sympathy with Beelzebub Corp.

    Has the hacking been proven, or?

    Not that I am aware of. However, as a former Glasgow Herald editor said on the TV the other night "it is ironic that the organs of the media so adept in creating moral panics and witch hunts are now the focus of a moral panic and witch hunt".

    What goes 'round comes 'round - usually in it's original incarnation.
