Cameron promises News of the World phone hack probe
 

David Cameron has promised to set up a public inquiry into phone hacking at the News of the World.

The UK prime minister said claims that the voicemail of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler had been hacked, with some messages deleted, were "disgusting".

But he said an inquiry must wait until police investigations were over - Labour says it should be set up sooner.

Meanwhile News Corporation chief Rupert Murdoch said the allegations were "deplorable and unacceptable".

But he stood by News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks, who was editor of the News of the World at the time, and has faced calls for her resignation.

Mr Murdoch, the head of News Corporation, the newspaper's parent company, said in a statement: "I have made clear that our company must fully and proactively cooperate with the police in all investigations and that is exactly what News International has been doing and will continue to do under Rebekah Brooks' leadership."

He added that he was "committed to addressing these issues fully".

Yes I know,may blame that I'm sitting in an airplane :O:

Not at all, it was a partial quote which misreprested what he really said.

The full quote is "these revelations are deplorable and despicable after I have spent many millions trying to keep people quiet about them"
He has a point, when you have been throwing around a hell of a lot of hush money and have having your tame politicians help you out in trying to sweep the crimes under the carpet it really is despicable that after 5 years efforts it still becomes public.:03:

Speaking of cell phone

I wrote this in another site

Too right!!

Rupert Murdoch has thrown one to the wolfs and protects the other, I smell a rat.


Personally I don't give a hoot about celebs but then it comes to victims of crime that is not on. News of the World is a filthy low life scum of the earth cr*p riddled pile of horse s**t maggot infested vermin rag that has the bare front cheek to call itself a news paper.

Couldnt have put it better myself,:Dvery well said Steed

Rupert Murdoch-what ever happened to 'leading by example' or are you too worried about your investments?

Backing his CEO who was the Chief Editor at the time, now unless you are seriously mentally challenged, what sort of message does that send to the world.
As for David Cameron promising a public enquiry? Well, duh!
The world is surrounded by geniuses!

If David Cameron told me it was Thursday 7th July 2011 I would have to check the calender, as for Rupert "whats is name" the least said the better.

You'll be pleased to know that after Sunday it will no longer exist! :rock:
