Ex-managing editor of NOTW arrested

The former managing editor of the News of the World was arrested today on suspicion of phone hacking and inappropriate payments to police, according to reports.


A 71-year-old man is being questioned at a north London police station after arriving to be interviewed by appointment at 10.50am, Scotland Yard said.

He is thought to be Stuart Kuttner, 71, who resigned as the newspaper's managing editor in July 2009.


Mr Kuttner has previously denied his decision to quit shortly before the Guardian disclosed the News of the World paid out more than £1 million to settle cases which threatened to reveal evidence of alleged phone-hacking was related to the issue.

Woof!
 
Meanwhile……..

Wapping staff tried to delete thousands of emails

Evidence given to MPs fuels claims of hacking cover-up. MP says police should have seized Wapping IT system

News International has ordered the mass deletion of hundreds of thousands of emails from its computer system in the past 18 months, MPs learnt last night.



Gee Ish why do you think that might be?? Part of a media circus?

Woof!
 
And it turns out James Murdoch lied to the select committee about what he knew when. Must have been all the pressure from that media circus.
