leveson inquiry - wow, that's a lot of testimony to read this week
Re Leveson Inquiry and Phone Hacking
Paul McMullan lays bare newspaper dark arts at Leveson inquiry - okay, this him defending tabloid actions with various creepy and creepier justifications. It really has to be read to be believed.
Full Text here.
Also more relevantly in the politico-media sector, Andy Coulson and Rebekah Brooks 'knew about phone hacking at NoW' - we are shocked, shocked I say.
Hugh Grant and the Dowlers testify - okay, was Hugh always so sarcastic? I am going to watch every movie he ever made.
And because I keep losing this link (I keep assuming it's on the Guardian, I don't know why), Hugh Grant Is a Super Spy!, or, how he wore a wire and a reporter fails every Evil Overlord rule in the book.
...seriously, I never liked him before. What the hell, Hugh.
ETA:
Kind of a very brief overview of some of those affected by phone hacking: Leveson inquiry: media victims give their side of the story - depressing, enlightening, and chilling by turn, from the famous, the semi-famous, from parents, children, and victims.
