What is this and why is it a big deal? Who is this person and why do we care in the US?

I can’t understand why Murdoch kept her on after the payments to police officers scandal back in 2003.

She should have been locked up years ago. She looks like she came right out of a horror movie.

If a newspaper can do it, does anyone doubt for second that governments can, and do? For years? Regularly?

Remember way back when a private conversation of Newt Gingrich was recorded by random, two school teachers in Florida who just accidentally recorded it? Remember how outraged the media was (not)?

Is this really hacking ? And it’s not a moot question once this gets into the courts..
If it’s unencripted conversation (coded) that goes over the public sirwaves abd is monitored, listened to, which anyone with the right equipment can do. Then it’s not being “hacked into” hence decoded, but monitored and in the US legal.

It’s not clear what Murdock’s people were doi9ng and of course the anti-democratic socialist forces are creating another revisionist straw hound to kick around.. But in a heartbeat would use it if they’re not doing so already

On both sides of the Atlantic the radical leftist media is really pushing this story to try and ruin Fox News and the more conservative press in London.

She wasn’t doing anything more than the USA’s NSA agents using the Patriot Act to spy on the Regime’s political opponents?

Why doesn’t Holder investigate them?

Her major crime is that she is a red head.

I’m curious - so, reporters actually hacked into telephone communication, sort of like a wire tap - with the permission of those in charge? I’m just wondering how they thought that they would get away with such a thing - for long. It just seems so stupid and criminal to me - a newspaper and one owned by Murdock! YIKES!

I’d say, even Obama is not that stupid. Of course, I don’t know for sure.

I’m so glad that the right could provide this little tempest in a teapot in order to get a REAL scandal, “fast and furious”, off the lamestream media’s unwanted, “dragged to” news cycle.

I thought all the scandal sheets, not just Murdoch’s, used the same cell phone tactics.

Lets hope Murdoch takes the left on. This side scandal is to distract from everything else. I really haven’t payed much attention to his candal. been focused on the real issues.

This will not affect Fox News at all.

All of the large news companies support social subversion (feminism, family-busting, etc.) and socialism (one party for federal government, the other for local government).
