Some Guy Used To Own A Newspaper

Well, it turns out Fox News IS covering the News Of The World unpleasantness, after a fashion.


I just got a few questions:

1. If hacking is a serious problem, should we really just move on?
2. Is it illegal at all?
3. Who is this "Merdock" fellow? Does he own any other newspapers?
4. What are they, kiddin' me?
