News of the World

What are your views on this? the newspaper will publish its last edition ever Sunday....over 2.6 million readers every week....hundreds of jobs will be lost. However this hacker scandal had to be investigated and the ones who did it, authorised it etc should all be jailed...but 100's of innocent people who worked there are facing redundancy.

I think there will be a new paper soon in its place...the Sunday Sun or something but the people who are responsible for this hacking business need to be made accountable and just because the News of the World ceased production should not mean they all walk away from this.

With Cameron making an arse of himself appointing andy coulsen as advisor and his arrest today, i dont think the murdochs will be able to stop this frenzy!! That rebecca brooks will be sacked as soon as the government have a quiet word with rupert m and remind him that they havent sanctioned his bskyb takeover yet ;)

Closing down the NOTW is a nothing act as they already had plans afoot it seems to replace it with a 'Sunday Sun' or similar.

Many of these jobs will be lost but I suspect a lot will be re-deployed within the company.

Not the first time, blue collar workers have lost their jobs because of those above them abused power and it certainly won't be the last.

Like they said during the 1980's, it should be called 'The Wapping Lair'

didn't someone say once upon a time....if your not part of the solution, then you must be part of the problem.
so they lose their jobs, they should have thought of that when they were printing story's out of nothing more than entrapment.

I feel sorry for those employees who had nothing to do with it but are about to lose their jobs. Hopefully the business will accommodate them with new employment.

As for those who are responsible then they should be made an example of and thrown in jail. I just hope worms like Murdoch dont manage to wriggle their way out of it if they knew it was going on.

I feel sorry for the thousands of people around the country who have lost their jobs due to foolish banking and reckless spending - it was f**k all to do with them either.
This wasn't even a proper newspaper - a wanking sleeze machine we all put our morals down to buy on a sunday to read about sleeze gossip and perhaps the odd tit or model shot.
Be lucky if you had anything at all on welsh or scottish/N Ire sport at all. UK national newspaper be fucked :roll:

I have 24,000 e-mails and they had access for five days, I don't know what they sought, what they found, I just know what they used," Mr Ridsdale said.

He believed they used a password prompt to change the password and access his account.

Yea alright Pete !!!

To be hacked Pete you would have to have someone ring your voice mail and tell out your password! You just love the chance of the publicity Pete!!! Your just lucky the News of Screws didnt get their hands on CCTV when you were rodgering a certain member of staff down the park plazza!!!
