Police examine bag found in bin near Rebekah Brooks's home - Amelia Hill

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/jul/18/mystery-bag-bin-rebekah-brooks

The car park, under a shopping centre, is yards from the gated apartment block where Brooks lives with her husband, a former racehorse trainer and close friend of David Cameron.
It is understood the bag was handed in to security at around 3pm, and that shortly afterwards Brooks's husband, Charlie, arrived and tried to reclaim it. He was unable to prove the bag was his and the security guard refused to release it.
Instead, it is understood that the security guard called the police. In less than half an hour, two marked police cars and an unmarked forensics car are said to have arrived at the scene.

It is simply amazing fun to watch a corrupt media organization to fall apart and nothing stirs interest like watching the bully get his comeuppance, especially if the bully whines the entire time about how unfair it is.

Rupert Murdoch is 80-years old. His presence is destroying the value of this media orgnization, an organization that he built. It is rippling throughout the British and American media landscape (watch for Piers Morgan to become mired in the scandal) and is dragging down law enforcement as well as politicians.

Everyone has feared him for so long that one wants to be the one to tell Rupert that to save his organization, he has to leave it and go to pasture.
