Charlotte Church 'sickened' by NoW phone hacking (BBC) {disgusting sleaze at NoW}

Charlotte Church says she was "sickened and disgusted" by what she discovered during her legal action against News International over phone hacking.

Ms Church and her parents have agreed damages and costs of £600,000 with News Group Newspapers - publishers of the defunct News of the World.

The court heard her mother, Maria, had a complex medical history which the newspaper found out about and published private details of her hospital treatment.

The family's solicitor, Mike Brookes, told the court: "At her lowest moment, the NoW issued her with an ultimatum and coerced her into giving them an in-depth interview about her self-harming and attempted suicide.

"We got a sense of how important the process of litigation here is, the process of discovery, with Ms Church saying it has only been in the last few days that she really learned the full extent of what had been happening," our correspondent added.

This was a "news" company ? NoW might better be described as an organized crime syndicate -- and all the rest of Murdostopheles' empire, the same.
