Murdoch Minion and current head of Dow Jones Les Hinton is now center of the phone hacking scandal
Focus of phone-hacking investigation shifts to Les Hinton (Guardian) http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/phone-hacking

What?!! One of Murdoch's U.S. Employees might have been involved in the phone hacking scandal?!

I wonder how much longer until we see a headline implicating Roger Ailes, head of FOX?

4. Let the sweating begin!
I'm in San Angelo, and I'm forgetting what rain looks like.

2. Hinton was editor of News of the World at the time of the hacking.
James Murdoch is in trouble, too, but Ailes is scot-free.

7. Do you think Ailes will stay clean or get dragged in?

6. We can only hope it leads here. That may be the only way Faux will come down along with others.
