Article.

This is related to the cell phone hacking scandal, and paints Piers Morgan as a bad guy who knew about the recordings. Then comes the update, at the very end of the article, stating that the claim the article was based on turned out to be nothing.

This is just another example of today's shitty journalism. Once the claim was shown to be bunk, then the story should have been pulled or the update put at the top of the article.

Yeah, but then how would they bash Murdoch with that. Don't you know Murdoch is the Devil? It even SOUNDS LIKE "Moloch," who is one of Satan's minions.
