The probe is linked to a continuing investigation into phone hacking at the now-closed News of the World tabloid, published by News International, the British arm of Murdoch's News Corp media empire. Saturday's operation was the result of information passed to police by News Corp's Management and Standards Committee, set up in the wake of the phone hacking scandal, London's Metropolitan Police said. One of those being questioned on suspicion of corruption was a 29-year-old police officer serving with the Met Police's Territorial Policing Command, who was arrested at the central London police station where he worked. The others, all arrested at their homes, were a 48-year-old man from north London and two men from Essex, east of the capital, aged 48 and 56. Searches at News International's offices in Wapping, east London, and at the arrested men's homes, were expected to continue until the afternoon, police said. The operation takes to 12 the number of arrests in a probe into allegations journalists paid police in return for information, known as Operation Elveden, one of three criminal investigations into the news-gathering practices of the News of the World. Last week, News International settled a string of legal claims after it admitted that people working for the tabloid had hacked in to the private phones of celebrities and others to generate stories. The phone hacking scandal drew attention to the level of political influence held by editors and executives at News International, and other newspapers in Britain. It embarrassed British politicians for their close ties with newspaper executives and also the police, who repeatedly failed to investigate allegations of illegal phone hacking. News International had no immediate comment on Saturday's police operation, a spokeswoman for the media group said. |

Isn't it funny that Rupert Murdoch has been compared to the villain of a James Bond movie?
You know the one....Elliot Carver played by Jonathan Pryce. And that was long before the phone hacking scandal came about. Interestingly enough, Carver was based on another (now deceased) media mogul who just happened to also be a politician....Robert Maxwell. Maxwell, however, never had the t.v. empire that Murdoch has created....an element crucial to the Carver's role as Bond's nemesis in Tomorrow Never Dies. Perhaps there is more to the Murdoch-Maxwell-Carver comparison than meets the eye... It's interesting to note certain parts of Carver's background against both Maxwell and Murdoch. For instance, Maxwell was a self-made man, born to poverty in Czechoslovakia. However, both Carver and Murdoch inherited their businesses from family. Both Murdoch and Carver wanted to build a global satellite news network that could rival CNN's influence....and then did so. As noted, Maxwell never had such t.v. influence, mainly because his own media ambitions thrust him deep into debt. And then there is the physical image of Carver in the movie... ![]() ...as compared to Murdoch... ![]() ...and Maxwell. ![]() The screenwriter may have used Maxwell as his inspiration, but it certainly appears that the production team re-shaped Elliot Carver around Rupert Murdoch instead. In any case, all three are bad news - pardon the pun. |

Presidents are so condradictory. They always claim they'll put everything right, yet the outcome is always worse. Maybe they should stop watching all those sports channels, and do what is needed. Instead, they probably all just sit at home, playing cards.

Instead, they probably all just sit at home, playing cards. The presidents who did little to nothing are still the best. Unfortunately, the rational, quality presidents are the most overlooked. Coolidge, for example, was awesome. ![]() |

John Pilger and Rupert Murdoch.
Both in the media business. Both Australians. One should be in Jail. The other should be given full reign over the news Corp empire. This is not a trick Question.... ![]() |

That's what I am getting at, if your gonna blame this guy you gotta blame Ron Paul. RP has taken responsibility for his part..Murdock and his son deny EVERYTHING! |

Long before it was possible to hack phones, Murdoch was waging a war on journalism, truth, humanity, and succeeded because he knew how to exploit a system that welcomed his rapacious devotion to the “free market”
