Jaspa Posted 14 June 2012 Posted 14 June 2012 News about the f**king News Im really getting bored of this being one of the main stories everyday
Guest MattP Posted 14 June 2012 Posted 14 June 2012 I meant throughout the entire inquiry so far. Those were two pretty important, potentially damning points though and how many of the questions answered had prepared answers? Talking to politicians, can't expect anything else!

21st Century Fox Posted 28 June 2012 Posted 28 June 2012 Rupert Murdoch snubs Britain and says he will invest his billions in the US Once Britain's most powerful media figure, Murdoch has seen his bid for broadcaster BSkyB blocked and his reputation dragged through the mud following the phone-hacking revelations. Last month a parliamentary committee said he was not a fit and proper person to run a major corporation.Now he looks set to retaliate by taking his money elsewhere. Asked about his future plans following his decision to split his News Corp empire in two, Murdoch made clear the UK was not his first priority and said the company's thinking had "moved on" since it abandoned its Sky bid last summer at the height of the phone-hacking scandal. "There are billions and billions of dollars, and if Britain didn't want 'em, there are plenty of good places to put them here [in the US]. I'm much more bullish about America than I am about England," he added. "I would be a lot more reluctant to invest in new things in Britain today, rather than here." Asked by Cavuto whether this was because of what he went through, Murdoch replied: "No, not at all, just the English."
OzFox Posted 30 June 2012 Posted 30 June 2012 Journalists love nothing better than talking about other journalists. It makes them feel important.
Rincewind Posted 30 June 2012 Posted 30 June 2012 Someone has to take the credit for the 'stories' in the Mail. It's not easy converting members of the public who think for themselves.

Rincewind Posted 12 December 2012 Posted 12 December 2012 How I envy your intellect. Thank you. Don't always take me serious. I have an offbeat sense of humour sometimes.
Guest MattP Posted 12 December 2012 Posted 12 December 2012 Thank you. Don't always take me serious. I have an offbeat sense of humour sometimes. I envy the speed of your replies.
Rincewind Posted 12 December 2012 Posted 12 December 2012 I envy the speed of your replies. Didn't notice the date because there was a reply after Webbos.
ozleicester Posted 13 December 2012 Posted 13 December 2012 Rebekah Brooks receives £10.8m News International payoff News Ltd are beyond evil, Ive worked for these **** and had to batter staff about missing budgets by a few hundred dollars etc... meanwhile these fvckers are losing billions on myspace, wasting hundreds of thousands on corporate bullshit and now giving millions to disgraced evil ar$eholes. The sooner News Ltd and its family of parasites collapses... the better
accessory Posted 14 December 2012 Author Posted 14 December 2012 The Brooks and Coulson trials can't come soon enough. If either of them go down, they'll take a lot of people down with them.
Bellend Sebastian Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 The Brooks and Coulson trials can't come soon enough. If either of them go down, they'll take a lot of people down with them. They're here, and they're ruddy brilliant, and yes, three of their cohorts have already pleaded guilty. After the ROFL larks of yesterday, the prosecution have been talking today about an instruction by Coulson to 'get' Calum Best's phone. Go to jail, Andy, go straight to jail, do not pass go, do not collect £200. If it seems like I'm gloating, it's because I am - I really cannot put into words how much I abhor these power corrupted shits and their worthless contribution to public life. Spare a thought for Ross Kemp though
Webbo Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 Spare a thought for Ross Kemp though Speccy geek has affair with the wife of a TV hunk. Makes you proud to be a Tory.
Bellend Sebastian Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 I think she'd be quite attractive if she wasn't quite as unhinged
purpleronnie Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 I think she'd be quite attractive if she wasn't quite as unhinged yep
breadandcheese Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 I think she'd be quite attractive if she wasn't quite as unhinged Isn't that the attraction for you?

Spare a thought for Ross Kemp though You know a newspaper has hit the lowest of the low when people are being told to "get" Callum Best's phone. I couldn't give a **** what he's doing, or anyone connected to. I couldn't give a **** what most celebrities are up to day to day, but least of all someone as pointless as him.
Mack Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 Spare a thought for Ross Kemp though It would be quality if that slap head turned up at court and as coulson left for the evening he nutted him!
Bellend Sebastian Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 Isn't that the attraction for you? Isn't that the attraction for you? It's a fine line between having an unconventional personality and a personality disorder. If she can draw in Ross Kemp like a moth to a flame, then what chance have I got?

It's a strange world these newspaper types live in, for sure. It would be quality if that slap head turned up at court and as coulson left for the evening he nutted him! It'd be light relief for the assembled throng. I think it would be better if he stood outside the court and explained how he felt about it all through poetry, perhaps in front of a big screen showing that Fruit 'n' Fibre advert he was in years ago

Bellend Sebastian Posted 1 November 2013 Posted 1 November 2013 Watching it again, you can see how Rebekah Brooks could see that and, much like Posh Spice did with David Beckham, decide that she must have him and nothing will get in her way
ozleicester Posted 25 June 2014 Posted 25 June 2014 Well, well, what a surprise, she got off Anyone up for a sweep as to when she starts back with Limited News... Im guessing 1st of November. Absolue shame for all decent people in the UK, just shows that the media not only runs your (and our) government, but the legal system is also available to buy.
leicsmac Posted 25 June 2014 Posted 25 June 2014 The more you can pay for a lawyer, the more likely it is for you to be found not guilty. Especially in the field of corporate law.
