As much as I have been enjoying seeing Rupert Murdoch turning in the wind I do not think that the British will be able to fully investigate this matter. Murdoch has been shaping British govt. since Thatcher. Everyone at the top of the govt. is there because Rupert Murdoch allowed them to stay. As much as they hate Rupert Murdoch, they are beholden to him. His newspapers have also been hacking their phones. Murdoch has been running the show because he knows everybody's secrets.
He still does.
The police are in worse shape. Murdoch has been paying them for story leads, to find story subjects, to ping where-abouts. Murdoch has had access to the police computers and records. Scotland Yard's investigators have been hiding and covering up News Corp's lawbreaking. The policeman in charge of the first investigation on Murdoch found nothing wrong, retired, and got a lucrative job writing a column for Murdoch. My guess is News Corp has paid off so many policemen that Scotland Yard would be gutted of employees if they were all to be investigated. There would be a possibility of a clean investigation if the dirty Murdoch cops weren't still running the show.
But they are.
News Corp has promised, again, to diligently investigate on their own. Rebekkah Brooks promises she will do a complete and thorough job of investigating herself to see if she did anything wrong. She'll even double check all her emails before she deletes them to make sure there is nothing of importance inside. By "diligently investigating" what News Corp means is they will take the time to hide, erase, shred and burn more evidence. Will they investigate?
They will not.
The US Dept. of Justice is the best hope for a complete and thorough investigation. News Corp has proved itself to be unethical. To think that they act any differently just because they are in the US is ridiculous.
Call your Senator today. :0)
