The phone-hacking scandal 电话窃听丑闻 The phone-hacking saga jeopardises more than merely the News of the World: it threatensRupert Murdoch, the press as a whole, the police and politicians 电话窃听事件不仅仅危及《世界资讯报》的安危，它也威胁到鲁珀特默多克，整个资讯界，警界及政界的未来。 UNTIL this week, the victims in the scandal over the illegal hacking of mobile-phone messagesby the News of the World seemed mostly to be celebrities, royals and others too privileged tocommand much sympathy. For the tabloid, that was a useful mitigation in the court of publicopinion, if not in law. No longer. The sordid antics of Britains biggest-selling Sunday paperowned by News International, Rupert Murdochs British newspaper outfitlook morepromiscuous and more gravely criminal. And the circle of blame and taint is widening. 截止本周为止，被《世界资讯报》非法窃听电话信息的受害者大多数都为名人，皇室成员等，他们因身份特殊，享受特权，不会得到多少同情。对于《世界资讯报》来说，这将有力的缓和公众舆论所施加的压力，可在法庭上就行不通了。但是，现在公众也不会施以谅解了。传媒大亨默多克的资讯国际旗下的英国资讯出版单位星期日报是英国最畅销的报纸。他们哗众取宠的丑恶行为看来更杂乱无章，罪大恶极。目前，受到谴责与世界资讯报同流合污的人物网正在进一步扩大。 |
