News Of The World kapt ermee

Hij heeft waarschijnlijk het beeld dat de Telegraaf net zo erg is als NOTW. Bild, the Sun en Daily Mail zijn kwaliteitskranten als je het vergelijkt met NOTW, ik zou zo geen krant weten die erger is dan NOTW, Zelfs de Pravda of Völkischer Beobachter hadden waarschijnlijk nog meer scrupules

Echt, het valt voor een Nederlander die deze krant niet regelmatig eens gelezen heeft niet te bevatten hoe erg, en vooral hoe machtig deze krant was, en daarmee hoe machtig haar Uitgever. Als je hem tegen je had verloor je verkiezingen.

Volgens mij was de NOTW niet zo met politiek bezig, maar meer met schandalen, sport en tieten.

Dagelijks beuken zoals Bild, The Sun of Daily Mail doen is een stuk effectiever.

Dát is volgens google de grootste Engelstalige krant overigens, niet NOTW.

Goed, dan hebben BBC World News en allerlei andere nieuwszenders het dus mis.

quote:

It is the UK's best-selling newspaper and reportedly the most read English language paper.

quote:

Rebekah Brooks was inside the building when the staff were informed that the paper was closing.

She was apparently in tears, as were many of the journalists. There was said to be a huge amount of anger that Rebekah Brooks has kept her job whilst theirs had been lost.

quote:

"The News of the World was going out of business anyway, people were not going to buy it on Sunday, advertisers were falling out in their droves ... I think we should see this for what it is. It's a very cynical managerial manoeuvre which has put several hundred, not evil, people ... out of work and he's kept in particular one woman who was the editor [at the time] in a highly paid job."

quote:

"This shows the depths to which Rupert Murdoch and his lieutenants at News International are prepared to stoop. The announcement James Murdoch should be making today is the dismissal of Rebekah Brooks as chief executive of News International... Closing the title and sacking over 200 staff in the UK and Ireland, and putting scores more freelances and casuals out of a job, is an act of utter cynical opportunism."

quote:

"This is designed to try and protect Rebekah Brooks, and I believe that if she had a shred of decency after what we have heard about Milly Dowler's phone being hacked, which happened on her watch as editor, she should have resigned by now ... This strategy of chucking first journalists, then executives and now a whole newspaper overboard isn't going to protect the person at the helm of the ship."

quote:

"It's a typical management stunt from Mr Murdoch. What he does is he gets rid of problems and in this case nobody in senior management ... none of those go but the poor old workers at the News of the World are going and there's no doubt it will become the Sunday Sun."

quote:

"Let's be clear about this, this paper has closed but the hacking saga has not. The issue for me today is not whether Rupert Murdoch closes a paper that was going to go bankrupt because there are no advertisers or readers left, it is whether Rebekah Brooks is going to consider her position and resign as chief executive of News International.

"The anger will only subside when a very senior executive in this company takes responsibility for this heinous attack on British people."

quote:

Rebekah [Brooks] and I are absolutely committed, this company is committed, to doing the right thing and what that means is about co-operating and working fully with the police investigations into those alleged practices and into those activities. It's also about putting into place the processes, so that we understand what happened and we have a process in place to make sure these things don't happen again. I'm satisfied that Rebekah, her leadership of this business and her standard of ethics and her standard of conduct throughout her career are very good."

Door de krant te sluiten kan Murdoch alles legaal laten verdwijnen.

Is Murdoch free to destroy tabloid’s records?

Under British law, Stephens explained, all of the assets of the shuttered newspaper, including its records, will be transferred to a professional liquidator (such as a global accounting firm). The liquidator’s obligation is to maximize the estate’s assets and minimize its liabilities. So the liquidator could be well within its discretion to decide News of the World would be best served by defaulting on pending claims rather than defending them. That way, the paper could simply destroy its documents to avoid the cost of warehousing them—and to preclude any other time bombs contained in News of the World’s records from exploding.
