Murdoch phone hacking scandal smolders on

Lisa O’Carroll and Josh Halliday, The Guardian:

Four current and former senior Sun journalists and one serving police officer have been arrested as part of Scotland Yard’s investigation into police corruption.
…
The four Sun employees arrested are understood to be Mike Sullivan, the Sun’s crime editor, the former managing editor Graham Dudman, the executive editor, Fergus Shanahan, and Chris Pharo, a newsdesk executive.

The arrests came after information was passed to the police by News Corporation’s internal investigations unit, the Management and Standards Committee.
…
In his witness statement to the Leveson inquiry earlier this month, the Sun’s editor, Dominic Mohan, said: “To the best of my knowledge, the Sun has never knowingly paid or made payments in kind to police … for information.”

More sacrifices.
