Murdoch can almost certainly kiss goodbye to BSkyB.

Done.

Possible hacking of 9/11 victims' phones being investigated....

Oh boy...

[karajorma]

As I said on Sectorgame, without any actual proof offered of how he knows this, it might be simply a case of the senator using an example of how bad they could possibly have been (an emotive one but nothing worse than hacking the 7/7 victims and therefore one that is completely possible).

Whistleblower who called out News of the World found dead.

Christ. This is starting to get really, really ugly.

not suspicious my ass

Some people are calling this suspicious. Now I'm not saying that Rupert Murdoch had a hand in that guy's death. But some people are wondering if he did. Since he probably has nothing to hide, why doesn't he come forward with a statement on the issue and just put it to rest?

Murdoch's Magic Murder Bag?

Did Rupert Murdoch have a man killed for outing his dodgy tabloid? Did Glenn Beck really rape and murder a girl in 1990? I'm not saying anything. I'm just asking questions here...

Well News of the World did hire some "uncool" people to do their dirty work for them. It's fully possible some of them acted independently to off this guy.

Birth certificate.

I imagine that the people who ran NOTW would know that if this guy turned up dead, it would look really bad for them. I also wonder why they would kill him? The damage has already been done, unless he had some larger leak he was going to show (which he made no public motions towards doing). I mean, it's also possible the guy's life sucked and he wanted to kill himself to put one last jab into NOTW's eye. *shrug*

Innocent until proven guilty applies to everyone.

You do have to love the irony of that though.

Oh, I agree completely with the principle. That's why I'm not making any accusations. I'm just asking questions here.

On a lighter note, protester attempts to hit Murdoch with a shaving cream pie during his testimony:
