The phone hacking scandal! It seems to be hitting newspapers around the world and all I can say is that I really just want it to go away! What these people did was really horrible, how they think they can rise above the law and hack into innocent peoples phones. Messing around with voicemail messages on a phone that belonged to someone that had sadly been murdered, I mean there was clearly a line that they ran across as far as they could possibly go. What started out a very serious news story that showed the media in its worst light seems to have just fallen over itself and has turned into a drama of people quitting work that really do not need to quit and people being sacked that really do not need to be sacked! then, the people that do need to be sacked seem to still have their jobs (well luckily the evil red haired Rebekah Brooks is no longer there!) I know I am only one voice in a sea of thousands on this topic but the media have seemed to lost the point of this whole story and spun it out of control. For the very first time in my life I had to actually turn Sky news off because I could not stand what they were talking about (I am actually gobsmacked!) Why are we hearing about police officers quitting because they had links to some people that had done bad things at the News Of The World? I mean I thin it is more honorable if they stay on, after all they did not really do anything wrong (or maybe I have not read the full story) Why on earth did the News Of The World paper shut down?! it was not the paper that had done wrong, it was some of the people who worked for it! and what makes things worse is that half of the people that were involved in the hacking scandal did not even work for the paper anymore so there are people out of their jobs! The whole situation has gotten too far out of control and not only does it make our media look bad in the eyes of the world and the UK (not that we actually care because they are the nasty media after all) but I think it makes our country look a sham! I mean it is so embarrassing for the Met, the prime minister (who may have made some bad choices) and just the people that run and mess with our country! I hope people do learn from this mistake because it is costing many people deep pain and embarrassment (some that do deserve it but also some that really do not) Move on news and country just sort your bloody self out!
