Britain's Prime Minister And Australian Politicians Denounce Rupert Murdoch And News Corp

When Perversion Takes Root

November 7. 2011

Rupert Murdoch

Britain's Prime Minister, David Cameron and Australian politicians in Rupert Murdoch's native Australia, have publicly denounced him and his company News Corp, due to the disgraceful, ongoing phone hacking scandal. Cameron referred to Murdoch and his company in stating the following, "It is a criminal offence, and I would urge the police and the prosecuting authorities to follow the evidence wherever it leads. That must happen first, and we must not let anything get in the way of criminal investigations."

Indeed, as anyone who thinks it his right as a so-called businessman to criminally hacking into the phones and computers of other people, effectively spying on them in their homes, then publish the content for profit, is a public menace.

In Murdoch's homeland of Australia, Members of Parliament, such as Doug Cameron and months prior, the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, publicly slammed him for his outrageously illegal conduct that saw him surreptitiously spy on children who were murder victims, politicians and celebrities, for scoops he printed in his international newspapers and broadcasted on Fox News in America and Sky in Britain. Doug Cameron called Murdoch "A threat to democracy" and he is right. Murdoch's and company's conduct has been undemocratic and unlawful on every level.

There also exists a greater threat to privacy in this case, which goes well beyond phone hacking, wiretapping and hacking. On the surface, it is invasive, but due to established technological capabilities, such invasion of privacy also has another layer - the ability to turn on mobile phone cameras and mics, as well as those of computers/laptops and literally watch people in their homes without their knowledge, during their most private moments, including those in states of undress or during sexual intercourse. For further reference, see other cases where this has happened:
