News Corp. chief Rupert Murdoch exhibited willful blindness toward the
behavior of News of the World staffers in the lead-up to the British phone
hacking scandal, according to a report released Tuesday by a committee of
British legislators.
.
The report from a cross-party culture, media and sport committee is the
product of a years-long investigation into allegations that the tabloids
staff had for years been hacking into the phone messages of celebrities
and crime victims in the pursuit of news scoops.
.
Here are some of the highlights from the report:
.
The panel rejected Murdochs explanation that he was unaware that hacking
was widespread at the News of The World, blaming his staff for keeping him
in the dark, the AP reports.
.
The committee said that former News of The World editor and current New
York Daily News editor Colin Myler, and the News of The Worlds lawyer Tom
Crone misled the committee about the extent of the hacking. Both Tom Crone
and Colin Myler deliberately avoided disclosing crucial information to the
Committee and, when asked to do, answered questions falsely, they wrote.
.

.
The panel concluded that Les Hinton, a former executive chairman of News
International, was complicit in a cover-up of wrongdoing at the media
empire, the Guardian reports. The committee further condemned Hintons
decision to provide severance pay to Clive Goodman, the former royal
editor convicted of phone hacking in 2007.
.

.
Rebekah Brooks, the former editor of the News of the World, is on bail
after being arrested in connection with the phone hacking scandal in
March.
.

.
Still, the committee said Brooks should accept responsibility
for the newsroom culture that would allow phone hacking to take place:
.
Impersonating members of a missing girls family; besieging an employment
agency; falsely asserting cooperation with the police; falsely quoting the
police; and, according to their own account, obtaining Milly Dowlers
mobile telephone number from her school friends are hardly the actions of
a respectful and responsible news outlet. For those actions, and the
culture which permitted them, the Editor should accept responsibility.
