.Daily Mail Online takes aim at the BBC and accidentally shoots itself.

I was really shocked to discover that the Murdoch papers and the Mirror titles carried on committing crimes for years after we thought they had stopped. So reckless, so sure that their power put them beyond the law (and they were mostly right). prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/ph…

This Govt is in the middle of repealing Leveson-recommended legislation to protect hundreds of independent and local newspapers from SLAPPs, through the Media Bill.
Genuinely care about press freedom? Change course, Lucy Frazer .

It’s a plot line straight out of Succession, only it’s for real. For how much longer will Rupert Murdoch be granted impunity by the MPs his company hacked ? My column prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/65…

If you were interested in my piece yesterday about Gordon Brown calling for a second criminal investigation into phone hacking, you will be gripped by this amazing long read by ⁦Nick Davies⁩ in ⁦Prospect⁩ prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/ph…

- Huge hacking and other cases currently facing The Sun, Daily Mail
- Allegation Murdoch papers spied on sitting PM
- Prospect of new criminal investigations
... And the Govt, in a desperate bid to retain press support, continue to block Leveson 2.
Pathetic. And corrupt.

The lack of interest by other media in this scale of criminal activity underlines a corruption which is why Leveson 2 should never have been junked.

Breathtaking evidence of industrial scale phone hacking by Murdoch’s News operations in UK going far beyond celebrities. Listen to alan rusbridger and me talk to Nick Davies on Media Confidential - the story Fleet Street is ignoring or considers too hot to handle!

Vitally important that press reporting on the tragic passing of Daniel Anjorin is sensitive to those bereaved, and does not intrude on their grief.
Disappointing to see the Daily Mail has already reported on his school's fees, which are irrelevant.
If you are affected by press

Did The Sun and The Times and The Sunday Times publisher News UK hack the voicemails of a sitting Prime Minister?
Huge allegations facing the Murdoch publisher.

Hear hear Andrew Neil of the The Spectator , who calls for no Govt interference in media & no subs.
Now please:
1. Leave the sham regulator Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) which is run by an ex-Govt politician
and
2. Return to us the VAT newspapers & mags have not paid. Cheque made payable to 'UK taxpayers'

The Telegraph’s claim that the NHS will “ban transwomen from female wards” is false

Quite right. Only billionaire non-UK-taxpayers, who own unregulated newspapers where the law was routinely broken, should be allowed to be involved in UK media.

Did the Murdoch empire hack MPs for commercial ends?

Did Scottish taxpayers really “flee” the country over 1% tax rises?

Yes, The Times and The Sunday Times totally misses the point. Hugh Grant made clear it is not about the financial outcome. It is about seeing The Sun face accountability at trial over the most serious allegations of illegality.
