Murdoch's news channel in America showing why it is 'balanced and fair'...propaganda at its best. And they wonder why Fox News has no credibility. :doh1:

She been arrested!

Krishnan here - and we are on at 6.20pm.

Rebekah Brooks went to a police station in London today expecting to "help officers with their inquiries" about phone hacking and police corruption and was promptly arrested.

Her spokesman said she had been offering to speak to police since January and points out she was only contacted after she resigned from News International and days before she is due to give evidence to MPs.

There is now a question mark over whether she can say anything. MPs on the Culture Committee are alarmed about this, and raising some questions about the timing of this development.

Channel 4 News has learned of another major development in the investigation - Faisal Islam will have the story.

It was 0% that she'd survive this. Now I see Murdoch may be voted off the BSkyB board :happyboun
