'News' of the World

So, I haven't blogged for a while, and I need to catch up on what's been going on in the world, specifically Britian. An ancient tabloid called News of the World (which is an outlandishly stupid name) has apparently done some very bad things. Let's recap, SHALL WE?
1) News of the World hacked into the cell phones of victims of 9/11
2) They also hacked the phones of british soldiers who had been killed during tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, hoping to get some inside information.
3) They hacked the phone of a missing girl, and actually deleted some messages, causing the family of the girl and the police to believe that she was alive, and deleting the messages herself. She was later found to be dead.
4) This may be the most egregious of them all: They hacked Hugh Grant. How DARE you, News of the World? It's one thing to hack the phones of people who died tragic deaths, and then publish your findings in a tabloid, but to HACK HUGH GRANT? Despicable.
Now, technically, I'm not supposed to be reporting on this. You see, G-Force and its subsidiaries (Wikininja and Vertpac) are owned entirely by Newscorp, which also owns News of the World and FOX 'News'. The entire system is owned by Rupert Murdoch, the Australian five-time winner of the 'Biggest Asshole' award for excellence in the field of being an asshole. But it's my job as a thirteen year-old blogger to report on this, and that's what I'm gonna do. Unfortunately, FOX doesn't have the guts that I do.
You see, a group of FOX reporters were sitting around during a commercial break, and thought it would be fun to talk about the subject and throw the conversation up on the web. Well, that didn't go so good-- They ended up sitting there saying things like 'Does anyone want to talk about the subject we're not supposed to talk about?' It's a little frustrating... wait. My phone's ringing. I gotta take this.
What? LORD MURDOCH! Uh... yeah. Well... it's just a blog. Yes. I did say News of the World was despicable. No. NO! NOT THE RACK! PLEASE! I'LL BE GOOD! I'LL BE GOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!....
<< His great and powerful exaltedness, blessings and peace be upon him.
