Oh My! News International 'deliberately' blocked investigation
http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/jul/20/news-international-deliberately-blocked-investigation
<snip>
Rupert Murdoch's News International has been found by a parliamentary committee to have "deliberately" tried to block a Scotland Yard criminal investigation into phone hacking at the News of the World, the Guardian has learned.

The report by MPs from the all-party home affairs committee will be released on Wednesday and its publication has been moved forward in time for today's statement by prime minister David Cameron on the scandal.

The report's central finding comes a day after Rupert and James Murdoch testified before the culture, media and sport committee.

The home affairs committee report marks an official damning judgment on News International's actions.

-----------
Jon Stewart is having a feast with the scandal.

6. The phone-hacking was done by just ONE very busy journalist who "lost his way".
Roger Ailes' "brain room" with the super-secret equipment & security clearance is just a decoy for conspiracy theorists. And Ailes just pretends to be a very paranoid man.
