News Corp Phone Hacking Scandal, Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal Interview

The resignation of News Corp CEO Rebecca Brooks and the ongoing phone hacking scandal involving the News of the World newspaper dominate the media landscape. A BBC interview with Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, the second-largest shareholder of News Corp, reveals his insistence on full cooperation with the British government's commission. The discussion explores the potential for the scandal to be an orchestrated effort to force Rupert Murdoch out of the UK media market and the withdrawal of the News Corp bid for B-Sky-B.
