Murdoch's Hacking Scandal, Cont'd.

According to James Murdoch, Chief Executive Officer of NewsCorp, the United Kingdom's rag "News of the World" will cease publication on Sunday, July 10, following a growing firestorm of revelations about the paper's hacking of private cellphones. It looks like the beginning of the unraveling of media pirate Rupert "Arrgh" Murdoch's control of the British press.

It's a good start, but the U.S. needs to investigate whether the right-wing media mogul has invaded the privacy of U.S. citizens through hacking and other devious means. Fux, the Wall Street Urinal, the New York Pus and other right-wing propaganda outlets should be under the microscope, and nailed hard if they engaged in the same despicable actions.
