“You will see communist US politicians calling for the arrest of American News Corp executives, using this 11 year old “scandal” as an excuse.”
Where did you get 11 years from? This has been going on a *lot* more recently than the year 2000!
What this scandal is really showing, digusting behaviour of the journalists aside, is that the UK tabloids, police and government are all thoroughly in each others pockets right up to the very highest levels. I have a healthy respect for the role of the free market in the running of my country - but am I happy to see so many of our elected officials and police seemingly dancing to the media owners’ tunes? Hell no - I do NOT want to live in a banana republic.
You live in a banana republic
