Hugh Grant was hounded mercilessly by the Rupert Murdoch press for any tidbit of gossip they could publish. Hugh Grant’s car broke down and low and behold, the guy who stopped to help was one of the journalists who had hounded him all those years. The reporter had retired so the two ended up having a couple of pints and the journalist blabbed all about how Murdoch’s top British Harpy and Chief of Newscorp, Rebekah Brooks was often horseback riding with the new Prime Minister, that she 100% knew of the phone hacking, and then he admitted to a whole bunch of other things going on at Murdoch’s newspapers. Bad things. Illegal things…

And best of all? Hugh Grant hated this reporter for making his life so miserable…so he taped the conversation. So this adds another level into the phone hacking. Two of Murdoch’s top paper people were arrested this week AND Murdoch is pulling his son out of England…perhaps out of fear the arrests will go higher up the Murdoch chain of command!

Extra, extra, read all about it!
