Murdoch in Wiretap Fix
Even Rupert Murdoch may have a tough time getting out of this one. The Guardian reports that three of Murdoch's British newspapers paid more than £1 million, more than $1.5 million in U.S. dollars, to settle court cases that alleged his journalists hired private investigators who illegally hacked into the cell phone messages of "numerous public figures," including Gwyneth Paltrow and Elle MacPherson. The private investigators allegedly obtained confidential personal information, including tax records, bank statements and phone bills, though News Corp. claimed it had no ties to the investigators. Actors, sports stars, and cabinet ministers were all targets of the spying, according to The Guardian's investigation. Murdoch, meanwhile, maintained that he knew nothing about payments to the investigators. "If that had happened I would know about it," he told Bloomberg News. One News of the World editor was jailed for four months in 2007 for hacking into phones of members of the royal family's household.

Rupert Murdoch the Freemason powermonger Has been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.Who else has been the target of the powermonger.Is any SAFE from these tyrants.
What sleeze factor the Guardian and Murdoch bring to us!
Victims of the illegal wiretaps should form a massive class action suit against Rupert Murdoch.
They are almost certain to be awarded millions & millions.
Murdoch is not a popular face in American media.
Like squiggy implies, when they see his name, they see sleeze.
Juries frown on exploitative invasion of privacy.
But you love rupert, squiggy. He tells it the way trolls want to hear it
The Guradian and Murdoch? How about Fox News and Murdoch? That's a little closer to home.
Don't blame the Freemasons. we admit that every barrel gets an occasional bad apple. For the record, we are not powermongers.
Do good work with children, especially burn victims. I really think though, occasional is a very loose term. More like 30% or so. My Dad was in the Blue Lodge for forty years. Wanted to stay in the blue lodge, and I don't know why.
The Bad apples are at the top of the Freemasons. Everyone below the 33 degree are in Good Faith. Its called Building Morals. They are just told the truth about history, at the 33 degree. After all, they helped to write and ReForm history, for a VERY LONG time.
Shouldn't this man go to jail. Oh, I forgot he is rich.
Murdoch, the Anti-Christ???
Murdoch and T. Boone have to come down! T. Boone owns Wells Fargo who has about one hundred million billion giga dollars of tax payers money on top of all the money he's screwed out of other people! Murdoch owns Fow , WSJ, and numerous other form of media. This is illegal to have however; Bush signed waivers just so he could keep buying media in the same market, and in other markets. These two SOB's have to come down. Anti-trust, has to bring them down.
Could any of these illegal methods have been used in the US as well?
The POWERMONGER is listening to YOU.. and you like to watch FOX.While there listening to you.Something is very wrong when a powermonger can do what he's doing.America BIG BROTHER is watching you and listening to you also....
And we are surprised .......why?
Trust but verify. Ronald Reagan
"Light and liberty go together." --Thomas Jefferson to Tench Coxe, 1795
I was thinking of another Ronald Reagan quote:
"A few months ago, I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not."
- Ronald Reagan, admitting the Iran-Contra Affair, March 1987
Murdoch has always been for the money he'll say or do anything for profits.As long as the money comes in he really
doesn't care what goes on at FOX
ditto T. Boone Pickens.
All Obama has to do to get Murdoch Out of the business is : Don't sign the communications extension that Bushie gave him so he could own more than one media in one area. Talk to your back stabbing lieing Pres.
AR-R-R-R-R-R! Gimme money, mate! A-R-R-R-R-R!

More interesting is the connection between the Freemasons and the Heritage Foundation. Yes, Murdoch AND Paul Weyrich made it to the 33 Degree. They believe in controlling information, to corrupt the publics knowledge. Fox News has become Murdoch's HOLY GRAIL, of misinformation. The key to their success, is to keep the lower level associates, in the DARK, while the higher ups have the privilage, to known the higher agenda. Bill Oreilly knows, but Hannity and Beck are just loud mouth puppets. Murdoch, Dick Cheny, Oreilly, and the Heritage Foundation, look to control the Wealth, USING religious foundations. Follow the money trail of Bush's Library. Find out who bought 100,000 copies of Oreillys book, to push him to the top of the best seller list.
33rd degree Masons have a secret...they KNOW who the Widows SON is...
