Missing Milly Dowler's voicemail "hacked by News of the World"

Discussion in 'UK politics, current affairs and news' started by editor, Jul 4, 2011.

  1. editor Boris-flaming web tycoon

    A new low for the vile rag, and surely one that should see serious criminal charges following in its wake.

  2. Ted Striker Foot's on the other hand

    So they pay out all the civil cases and get a big fat prosecution on top. Like it.
  3. editor Boris-flaming web tycoon

    I can see a huge range of potential charges over this, starting from perverting the course of justice...
  4. NVP LOBSTER RAGE FIST

    If that's true I hope they throw the book at them.
  5. andy2002 To the Bat-poles!

    God, I hope so. The arrogance and general hatefulness to behave like this is simply breathtaking. Just when you think News International can't stoop any lower they somehow manage to prove you wrong. Not that any newspaper – tabloid or otherwise – behaves a great deal better, of course...
  6. Badgers Mr Big Shrimp

    Mucky, mucky business. I hope that someone gets dragged through the streets for this one.
  7. Teaboy Tryhard wannabe

    This is being discussed on the andy coulson thread at the moment. My feeling is there are to many vested interests of powerful (rich) people that nothing serious will come of much of this. The Police tried to cover it up last time around and the politicians are staying very quiet.

    This :(

    There was a story in Private Eye recently that said Murdoch had planned to sack Rebekah Brooks but was then persuaded out of it. I bet her arse is out of there now though.

    Absolutely disgusting :mad:

    I'm a cynic at the best of times and have to say I wasn't terribly surprised when I saw the headline. But when I read that they'd deleted messages to make room for more I think I actually looked like a goldfish for a minute. I can't believe that even the coldest, most-cynical, money-grabbing tabloid journalist would not maybe think twice about that. Fucking unbelievable :mad:
  12. moochedit Mr Mooched It

    Is there any chance of Murdoch doing time over this ?
  13. starfish Theres no justice, theres just us.

    Words cant really describe how low this is.

    On Twitter it's being reported that people ringing up the NOTW news desk and shouting obscenities down the line. News desk. 0207 782 1001.

    It was on ansaphone when I rang.:mad:
  15. Orang Utan 90% Beard

    i find it interesting how a human being might come to this. did they think what they were doing was right? or did they just not care? do they have some kind of twisted morality/culture that keeps them doing these things, like the way soldiers who commit atrocities justify their actions to themselves?
  16. stuff_it Nerd burglar

    They didn't care.

    :(

    Disgusting.

    Why they are being allowed to acquire Sky is really quite beyond me.
  18. Teaboy Tryhard wannabe

    IME, media types think a bit different to the rest of us, the most important thing is they get their story with their picture next to it. Everything else is secondary.
  19. Teaboy Tryhard wannabe

    No, none at all.

  21. QueenOfGoths Shall I activate the Tantalus Machine?

    I don't think they cared, as long as they got their story. Disgusting behavoir :(
  22. killer b fuck's sake

    this will have repercussions. how serious remains to be seen, but it isn't really something that can be hushed up or swept under the carpet is it?

    brooks will be out in the next few days, i reckon. and there has to be criminal charges from this.
  23. goldenecitrone ubi sunt

    Well, they do work for the News of the World. So I guess the answer would be yes.
  24. steph Well-Known Member

    Illustrates a culture where absolutely nothing is regarded out of bounds in the pursuit of news dirt.

    Just. Scum.
  25. 8115 lucky fish

    That's atrocious.
  26. taffboy gwyrdd Embrace the confusion!

    That is my instinct too. Anyone who thinks the elite aint above the law might care to subscribe to my new publication "Bridge Buyers Monthly"
  27. taffboy gwyrdd Embrace the confusion!

    Anywhere I can link this to share?
  28. elevendayempire Registered Loofah

    Just copy the URL and bung it on wherever you want...
  29. taffboy gwyrdd Embrace the confusion!

    People will still by the NoTW despite the scandal - how else will they get the juicy gossip on the latest rapes and murders?
  30. taffboy gwyrdd Embrace the confusion!
