The phone-hacking scandal that saw Rupert Murdoch close the UK’s News of the World newspaper and several high-profile resignations has reached a crescendo. Thankfully there’s a faux movie trailer to make light of the situation. [Thanks, Petah!]
As delightful as it’s been to watch Rupert Murdoch’s British fiefdom slowly drown in a foul swamp of wickedness and criminality, it’s worth remembering that all good reporters are amoral monsters and that without a lot of highly questionable behaviour on the part of sordid hacks around the world, we wouldn’t know half the things we need to know.
