More Schadenfreude please!

Closing down News of the World (for the purpose of a long-planned reorganization) may not get Rupert out of this one.

Today, The Independent reported that hacking allegations have engulfed a second publication of Rupert Murdoch's -- The Sun -- his "best-selling" daily paper in the U.K. Previously, the scandal was confined to Murdoch's News of the World tabloid.

Only one thing will save Rupert now -- Page 3 Girls. Lots of Page 3 Girls.

That Independent story was from back in February. Are they STILL iinvestigating, or is it still going on? I haven't heard or seen anything the past few days about The Sun. However, the Australian Govt is asking for an investigation of Murdochs' companies there: http://bit.ly/pFM91U
