News Corp mogul continues Leveson testimony
(NEWSER) - Rupert Murdoch apologized today over the News of the World hacking scandal, admitting "I failed." He said he didn't pay enough attention to the tabloid, calling that lack of attention "an omission by me" during his second day of testimony at the Leveson inquiry into media ethics. "I am very sorry about it," he added, particularly to the "innocent people … who lost their jobs" as a result. He also suggested employees at the tabloid had attempted to cover up the extent of the scandal, and blamed subordinates for not telling him what was going on, the New York Times reports. More»
