...after #TheHack - we highly recommend listening to 'After The Hack' podcast!

final note for this shocking episode: Rebecca Brooks might have resigned at the time, but she didn’t stay gone for long… she’s now the CEO of News UK, i.e., in charge of Rupert Murdoch's media empire in the UK.

It should have finished Murdoch.. it didn’t. #theHack

“Decent people are out of a job” There were no decent people at the News Of The World. Fuck them all. #TheHack

Read the original article exposing #TheHack of murdered schoolgirl Millie Dowler’s phone by @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/uk/2011/jul/...

#EnormousDeletion - could that be the more than *30 million* emails that were deleted by Rupert Murdoch's UK company, News Group Newspapers, during the phone-hacking scandal? #TheHack

“I believe that powerful forces are involved in a cover up” You don’t say. #TheHack

Referring to Nick Davies #TheHack

Too many. Media reform is the only way to regain a functioning country. With big name 'quality' papers spewing out this drivel daily no wonder we aren't a serious country anymore. Misinformation is rotting our brains. I support @hackedoff.bsky.social & their call for reform & accountability.

I’ve signed. @peterstefanovic.bsky.social and @jacquihames.bsky.social doing an outstanding job!! @hackedoff.bsky.social UK residents, sign here: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...

Jacqui Hames - “I don’t think anyone’s understood the depth of criminality here, destabilising police investigations, I mean we’re talking about a murder charge.” #TheHack

Gordon Brown “Correct me if I’m wrong but the problem that we have is that the police, politicians and press are all collaborating under Murdoch’s aegis” No correction. #TheHack

Nick: "The whole industry turned away like a complicit snake" Sounds about right. #TheHack

Jacqui: "Someone from within the Met - sold him my information" Corruption and collusion going back decades. #TheHack

BSkyB explainer - another media mega corp that Rupert Murdoch wanted control of - to add to his long list. It would have reduced the choice of UK TV news providers. Less choice, more Murdoch. Sound familiar? #TheHack

Gordon Brown: “I think this country has become polluted - and I think that we could all, should all, try to do something about it, don’t you?” Still true. #PressAbuse #Corruption #TheHack

2 more episodes to finish a lot of loose ends... Spoiler... they're still loose. We'll see you next week for some more #TheHack

"World domination" - BSkyB - The Murdoch plan all along. #TheHack

"In all the years that I have been a judge, I have never come across a case in which there have been so many issues or such complex issues to be resolved before a trial could even get underway.” Nothing to see here. #TheHack

"How bad was the culture at your newspaper?" Coulson “I don't accept there was any culture of phone hacking at the News of The World.” That didn't age well. #TheHack

“Building a case about the culture at the News of the World” Why? To show this was endemic - not a one off, and the tip of the iceberg of unethical and illegal activities in British tabloid newspapers. #TheHack

Sienna Miller “The thing I was most sorry about, was I damaged my family. I only told my mum - and they still found out - and they published, and I thought it was her.” Imagine not trusting your mum, because your phone was hacked by a tabloid newspaper, and you didn’t know. #TheHack

“Did he know what was going on, Coulson?” “Yes” Coulson was later was found guilty and sentenced to 18 months in prison, before becoming the Conservative Party communications director. #TheHack

“This has to spread. The newspapers can’t ignore it.” [A few minutes later] “Would it surprise you to know it didn't spread?” What do we think?! #TopTenListOfUnsurprisingThings #TheHack

Nick "Coulson being in government is a contempt” Recap: Andy Coulson was editor of the News of the World 2003 to 2007, following the conviction of one of the newspaper's reporters in relation to illegal phone-hacking. He then joined David Cameron's personnel as communications director. #TheHack

Charlotte Harris “They’re worried about reviving an embarrassing story - Mostly they’re frightened.” This is the power of relentless press #monstering, and why it took so long for victims to come forward. Sound familiar? #TheHack

Can you imagine being the ‘keeper of the flame’ in the press phone hacking scandal? #TheHack

Remember - the murder of Daniel Morgan is still unsolved - and victims of phone hacking still don’t have justice. These two things are inextricably connected. #TheHack

Nick Davies “The BBC won't risk a battle with Murdoch.” 👀 The struggle to get the evidence about phone hacking taken seriously shouldn’t have been - and still be - this hard. #TheHack

Alan Rusbridger “There's a direct link between Number 10 and Murdoch. I don't like that whisper chain.” No, we don’t like it either Alan. #TheHack

The campaign for press justice and #TheHack continues. Live posting throughout Episode 5 with Liz. Say hello if you're watching too.

Introducing MENTICIDE & an invitation to do something about it. Sick of #Media misbehaviour? Maybe you'd like to attend a free #MediaRevolution open call on Monday Oct 20th at 19:00 BST We'd love to see you there. quit #doomscrolling and take action instead!

Spoiler alert. The murder remains unsolved. See you next week for more #TheHack to ....find out why....?

Jacqui Hames, featured in #TheHack, is calling on the Prime Minister to put the public ahead of Murdoch, and act now to end corruption and abuse in the press. Back her petition now: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...

Imagine your privacy, stolen from you. Your life under constant observation by press ready to distort your personal relationships into profitable headlines. Imagine those relationships collapsing. Your sense of safety, gone. #TheHack

Murder. Hacking. Threats. The hacking scandal takes some understanding. But this is one of the most important issues of our time. The press have a duty to report. The police - a duty to protect. When those two forces align in corruption…. no one is safe. #TheHack

“News of the World and The Sun are entirely separate publications.” It just so happens they’re owned by the same people. #TheHack

“My little brother was murdered 19 years ago. In that time, our family have been through four failed police investigations []. So forgive us if we’re not jumping up and down because you might have found a new lead” Alastair Morgan #TheHack

Jacqui: “We had journalists fishing for our bank details - our kids were followed by News of the World to school. The people you’re investigating are private investigators. They invade people’s lives and I’m not doing it again” #TheHack

Nice of #TheHack to fill in during the Grand Sumo interval. And a team up episode to boot. Bet they wish they could've grapped Murdoch by the belt and pushed him out of the circle...

Here we go for episode 4 of #TheHack Live tweets tonight by Liz. Let us know if you're watching too.

“The truth is power and secrecy walk hand in hand Here’s the thing. If you can expose the secrecy - you might, might might, break the power.” #TheHack

COOK: “The press goes through the police like a stick of rock.” #TheHack
