Murdoch's World
“IN SEPTEMBER 2011, DEVELOPMENTS IN London raced ahead of News Corp. Klein and his colleagues embarked on a ruthless cull within the tabloids. Arrests mounted. Bribery and corruption joined mobile phone hacking on the list of allegations. Police swept through reporters’ homes in early morning raids. Past courtesies no longer applied. The questions posed the previous April by Murdoch’s former Sunday Times editor took on added urgency: What did James Murdoch know about hacking, and when did he kno...w it?
Especially dangerous to Murdoch was the resentment of Colin Myler and Tom Crone, who had lost their jobs in July when the Murdochs decided to kill News of the World. At the end of the first week of September, the two prepared to take their case public, in front of the cameras at Parliament’s Portcullis House, so that all of Britain and the world could hear them attack the man next in line to take over News Corp.
The family, too, had turned on James, in various ways. First Elisabeth and then Rupert told James to step aside.MoreLess
