Murdoch still in MPs’ sights
Britain's top-selling newspaper was sacrificed to stop the toxicity from the phone hacking scandal infecting the rest of the Murdoch empire. But it is looking more likely by the day that the News of the World closure will have been in vain. MPs have now have James Murdoch clearly in their sights as they continue to dig down into details of decision-making at News International. He is almost certain to be recalled for a grilling after two senior executives openly contradicted evidence the company chairman gave to the Commons two months ago. Former legal manager Tom Crone today told the Commons culture committee he was "certain" he told Murdoch about an email which suggested illegal interception of voicemail messages was more widespread than first thought.
