phone tap scandal 13 Years, 8 Months ago  
I always thought this one would not go away- what with Galloway suing and now new revelations in the New York Times

It makes a real mockery of Murdoch's so-called 'conservatism' and Blair's book about his meeting with the media mogul.

Murdoch newspapers crucified then Oz PM Paul Keating by calling him 'arrogant' over and over until everyone repeated it like a mantra.

They have been trying to influence the outcome of the Oz elections for months now (that one is back firing)

Even worse is the relationship between the police and News Lt.

THE REPEATERS

The human being learns from repeating things. The more times we do something ( Practice ) the better we get.

Brainwashing is a simple thing related to advertising. The more times you repeat something to someone via different sources the more they believe it.

THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

A campaign relies on pluggers and PRs - who try to get the message ( Song - Story ) out to as many different outlets as possible so that a member of the public will get repeated plays and news about their artist. In the end they give up and buy the single/album.

X Factor works on this basis - a big show on network TV on Saturday. Smaller follow up shows all week and daily coverage in the written press. After a 14 week campaign they secure the number one often with a talentless karaoke artist whom the public have been brainwashed into believing is wonderful.

Just to mention that Susan Boyle was different. Everyone recognised her talent after just ONE appearance on TV and she went viral around the World because of the public. Leona Lewis likewise did not need brainwashing.


NEW LABOUR and the COALITION keep telling us we need to pay more tax to pay for the bailouts of the banks......they repeat it so much that we now all believe it. The problem for me is that the BANKS are now making massive profits ( Also from us ) so we are being fleeced from both sides and getting poorer by the month. Why is this happening ? The simple answer would be a profits tax on the banks of 50% of their profits for the next 10 years and get the USA and other countries to do the same ( those who have bailed out ). However, we the public are seen as MUGS by the Governments who take OUR money rather than get the banks to pay this money back out of their massive new profits !

We have effectively rescued the banking system and are now paying then twice over. Used to be called Double Counting and was recognised as fraud.

The media is willing to tap phones and to repeat. Murdoch is helping to destroy the World for his bankster buddies and anyone who does not believe in the BILDERBERG aganda really needs to look again at the reasons behind Murdoch's strategy.

The new leak is a tired and emotional old Bizarre hack called Sean Hoare - which I always thought was the best name ever for a tabloid reporter. He was - when I knew hiom 20 years ago - the most caricature typical journo; but although he is a very dodgy source I'm certain he's telling the truth; Andy Coulson knew all about phone hacking and openly discussed it (as most of Fleet Street did).

Moralities change; a lesson I learned 10 years ago.

New evidence of 'widespread NoW phone hacking'

The New York Times has published an online a lengthy investigation into phone-hacking at the News of the World which it plans to publish this weekend in its Sunday magazine.

Press Gazette understands that the paper had three reporters in London working on the story for five months: Don Van Natta Jr, Jo Becker and Graham Bowley.

Mildly frightening that the British media appears to have steered well away from this huge story - it takes the Yanks to expose the rot deep in the heart of Britain (and in No10 Downing Street).
