^^ Quite, she probably looked at Piers Morgan's career in the US and thought gently caress, if he can do it, no problem for me. Attractive, British accent, and ex political figure, she could get the talking head gig on all the news show circuit without much effort.

Yes.

The Daily Mail posted:

The light-hearted tone of Mr Cameron's leaked text echoes the way he reportedly congratulated Mr Brooks when he started his relationship with Mrs Brooks, saying: 'You'd better not mess this one up, Charlie. It's the most important ride of your life.'

Sounds like the banal sort of poo poo a character in a Jeffrey Archer novel would say.

  1. Rupert Murdoch divested of his wealth and power, imprisoned for the rest of his life. Fox News burned to the ground, land on which it stood exorcised, salted.
  2. Probably nothing. :smith:

Answer b. is the correct one.

Saddam is far, far away on the sympathy scale from Milly Dowler. No one will care.

They certainly could prosecute, but why would they? It'd be a huge amount of effort, expenditure and all the rest in order to punish some people for publishing an embarrassing photo of one the most hated men on the planet.
Unless there is an email from roops himself proclaiming 'I order you to corrupt the us government, muahahaha!' nothing will happen to him. I sincerely hope there is more to it than what we think we know, and that there is more to come, but if this is all there is, I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Was it the BBC thing on Iranians in Syria?

Yes. Who is that journalist? I've not heard of her before :swoon:

For experienced fighters I'm surprised they got caught out so easily, from the moment they started driving up there I was thinking 'ambush' and then they just ended up skylined on a barren hillside.

Meanwhile

At least some of the alleged hackings to place under Piers Morgan as well.

Is he an American citizen yet? It'd be just awful if he had to forgo ever coming back to this country to avoid face hacking charges yet had to face possibly credible death threats in his adopted land as a result of being a colossal loving bellend.

I've found myself in the position where I have to do a lot of self-promotion, so that means doing interviews, TV appearances, etc, to maintain and expand my profile. After the Croatian weapons story and the Guardian interview I got a big boost, and an increasing numbers of NGOs, governments, news organisations started to take me more seriously. Then the August 21st attack happened, and I started to collect all this unique evidence, and when it turned out I was bang on the money it made some waves, especially as certain parts of the intelligence community had been telling journalists my work was all wrong.

At the same time I've been getting more invites to attend and speak at various events, and a few weeks ago I spoke at the Google Idea's Conflict in a Connected World summit, and that went down very well, and the author of the New Yorker author saw it, and that's how the interview happened. I think one thing that journalists find really interesting is the way I work, so I've found they are keen to talk and write about me about that, not just the Syria stuff.

Please, resist any offers to speak at TED. I can only imagine your combination of plucky underdog :pcgaming:social media:pcgaming: and current affairs would have them drooling like wasps over a belgian bun.

On second thoughts, accept their invitation and then deliver a 20 minute summary of the NDS affair and why Murdoch (for new reasons) is a oval office.

It might demonstrate at least that she wasn't privy to the simple mechanics of the hack (default/blank PIN) even to protect her own privacy, but then again having a non-default password when almost everyone else did might have been a triple bluff in case any of this ever came to light oh god :tinfoil:

Saw this today, it's from July so I must have missed it the first time around. Have to say I always thought that the serbian warlord/disgruntled villains theories that were put forward were so bizarre as to be suspicious in and of themselves. Now we find out she had compiled a paedo dossier and surprise surprise was given the brush off by beeb management.
