‘Shaken’ Rupert Murdoch Meets With Family Of Millie Dowler To Apologize

video
» 104 comments

Rupert Murdoch, knee-deep in damage control overseas, met privately today with the family of Millie Dowler, the British girl who was kidnapped and murdered and whose cell phone was hacked for a story in Murdoch’s News of the World. Emerging from a meeting in a London hotel–and subjected to shouts of “shame on you” from protesters–reporters asked Murdoch if he personally apologized, and his answer was blunt. “Of course I did.”

A lawyer for the Dowler family, which is reported to be considering legal action against News Corp. for the phone hacking, described Murdoch as “shaken and sincere”:

“I think this was something that had hit him on a very personal level and was something that shouldn’t have happened,” he added.

“He apologised many times. I don’ think somebody could have held their head in their hands so many times and say that they were sorry.”

Murdoch was also said to have referred to his mother and father, an Australian journalist, saying that the standards set by them had not been met.

    Man it would be like the grim reaper coming to apologize, did he have a hood on and a scythe?

    Funny how his shaken-ness coincides with them hiring an outside PR firm yesterday (2 days ago?).

    Sorry lib. but Fox News isn’t going anywhere. So you will still have to deal with them reporting ALL of the news. Not just the news that you want to hear.

    I’ll make you 4 a bet. Come back in 365 days and see where the News Corp empire is. Murdock didn’t take as long to clean house as CBS. CBS attempted to throw and election to the candidate it supported by using fraud, lies and false documents. In the end only 2 heads rolled (and those 2 heads STILL claim they did NOTHING wrong BTW). In this case MANY heads will (and should” roll. Anyone connected with this or that knew about this is DOA. Unlike when liberal news organizations get caught.

    Think about it.

  • insideguy

    Actually batboy I agree with you(on one point) Murdoch will survive as will Pox News. Not because he did or didn’t do anything wrong. Its because hes incredibly rich and powerful and those type of people always survive.

  • insideguy

    That is of course until he actually dies which wont be long now.

    Fox has reported on this daily ever since it broke… God forbid that there be a news channel out there that is not directly fed by the Dems… I guess you guys would be really happy with a Venezuelan type media arrangement.. Don’t you even think about where your aspirations lead? Their current installment can be found on the splash page of their website.

    It doesn’t really matter… just like the WSJ article proved, even when a NewsCorp property talks about it, it’s “wrong,” or “bad,” or some other type of “yeah but…” excuse from the angry-left.

    It doesn’t matter. They’re angry now and hate NewsCorp because of FNC. They just fit the situation to that hate, not the other way around.

    “I think this was something that had hit him on a very personal level and was something that shouldn’t have happened,”

    I give it to Murdoch, he don’t have to do anything that he has done.
    Closing the paper and meeting with this family shows something. Neither required.
    Most will call it a damage control, I call it showing some class during classless times.
    He convinced me, I think those below him did it without his knowledge to make points at NOTW.
    I believe he is very shaken and stirred. I believe any companies remaining are cleaning house.
    I think the big dog is pissed and will close down anything and anybody at this time without care.

    One thing I have noticed that both sides do during these debates,is point out the other sides bad behavior in order to try and justify theirs. I have been guilty of this myself. cjd the ATF deal is just getting traction and im sure more will continue to come out about it. Ive looked into it and im amazed but not surprised that the ATF could be so stupid. Now that being said its a federal agency and hell the CIA blew it on 911 with much worse results. But this story isn’t about the ATF of CIA its about New corp and Murdoch,and media in general. Lets all try and stick with that.

  • ganymede

    When this story first erupted, it was clear that most rightwing people would not grasp how devastating this will be for the Murdoch empire. I’m sure that everyone agrees that hacking phones of private citizens is a sleazy activity for a supposedly respectful media organization. The number of hacked individuals is over 10,000 and still counting. Having lived in England for many years I understand that the British, in general, have a greater respect for privacy than we do, and, at this point, we really don’t know if Murdoch did much hacking here. The real crux of the Murdoch fiasco is that virtually all the non-Murdoch media have no love for Murdoch’s way of doing business. Yes, the more ‘liberal’ media will be saying ‘just desserts’, and they’ll twist the knife a bit more, but much of the attack on Murdoch is coming from Conservative politicians in Britain. The reason is their anger about being duped by Murdoch, and his former top assistant, Coulson. For sure, there will be spillover in this country, and, it will be interesting to see how the American public and media respond.

    Ok paleo so the best bush did was have a decent economy for 4 years. But then it crashed to the worst level since the great depression. Iraq may be judged a positive in the long term but man its waaaaay to early to tell and his reasons for going in were a mess. The debt doubled ,he bailed out private companies with public money, he has the waterboarding thing to deal with, Afganistan aint looking good, he never got Osama, Even his original election is controversial. Pescription drug plan, a general lack of ability to communicate, mission accomplished, hell 9-11, I just don’t see much out of this presidency honestly. He gave a lot of money to help fight AIDS in africa now that seems good, but im sure the conservatives didn’t like that so much. Immigration was a mess under him as well. I really and trying to see things objectively here but good lord like I said who was happy with him? He left office with an approval rating in the 30 percent range. Now Truman left office in a bad way as well and the conservatives hated him, but over time historians have judged him to be pretty decent. I suppose its possible Bush may get the same treatment but jeez I don’t think so.

    Apologies and resignations by News Corporation executives abound, but the practical reality is that now is the time to purge the world of the evil influence of Rupert Murdoch.  If entire countries (Egypt, Syria, Libya) can move to excise its evil, society can reject Murdoch’s hideous control of practically the entire English-speaking world’s media.  

    If you value an independent media comprised of ethical and responsible journalists, you can do your part by not purchasing or patronizing anything controlled by News Corporation.  Here’s a complete list of News Corporation holdings to guide your purchases/viewing.

    Please do your part.  There will likely never be another opportunity to have your voice so widely or forcefully  heard.

    ALL of media, far left and far right, needs to be cleaned up.  It’s got to start somewhere, so let it be Murdoch and his bastards.  Media is supposed to be CENTRIST.

    Is this really a “lefty/righty” issue, Heyitzme?  Murdoch is a Machiavellian mogul who just happens to be conservative.  Something like this could just as easily have developed in leftist ideology.  Making it an ideological issue is counter-productive to finding a solution.  The issue is too much control of the media by any one entity regardless of political affiliation.

    The only thing Murdoch is sorry about—is being caught at his dirty Right wing media tricks.

    Wouldn’t it be a dream come true—if Faux News went down—and people were forced to watch News that was Truth and Facts—not distorted , slanted, biased right wing lies?

    Rupert Murdoch is truly disgusting.  That teenager, Millie Dowler,  who was the cause of his apology is to me the Ann Frank of this scandal.  That is she was a face, a person for people to perceive.  Just as the millions of Jews, other minoirities, gays,  disabled were in a way incomprehensible because numbers were so large to fathom, this girl put a human face to the scandal. RM’s empire was huge but she put a human face on it.  Now I have trouble watching any FOX show and movie because of Murdoch.  I just hope  the FOX entertainment empire and other media outlets change hands soon.

    There should be a federal mandate in this country requiring every elementary education curriculum to include MEDIA LITERACY.   It
    does not require genius to detect the bias, political frame, and
    dishonesty presented by FOX News. But evidently it does require a
    certain sensibility– one that can discern information from
    entertainment, gravitas from spectacle, and discourse from diatribe.  The
    most satisfying irony in this entire scandal is that Murdoch’s
    operations succeed by utilizing textbook propaganda techniques, the most
    powerful being the engagement and subsequent enhancement of the
    subjects’ emotions. People are far more inclined to take action for
    emotional, than rational causes.  It appeared the only way to
    get the people’s attention over the hacking episodes, not to mention the
    abhorrent sleaze factor employed, the systematic degradation of
    journalism, and the egregious manipulation of elected officials, was to
    boil it down to the case of a murdered girl and her distraught parents.
    “The outrage!”  If whipping tabloid-reading Americans into a
    frenzy by ferreting out some incidents of 9/11 victims phone-hacking is
    the only way to expunge this global scourge, then so be it. But I’ll be
    disappointed if the bigger picture fades into the background.  If
    people don’t realize the danger to a free society if too much power is
    concentrated into the hands of too few individuals, then they are
    destined to suffer the consequences.

    To whom it may concern:
    ABC Lateline:EMMA ALBERICI: Rupert Murdoch’s other British tabloid, The Sun, didn’t report the story on its front page today. It was also absent on the front pages of other dailies, leading many to suggest that there’s a conspiracy of silence; that phone hacking is likely to have been a widespread means of gathering exclusive information among the British press.=======================Footnote:  None of the other (non-Murdoch) dailies are being investigated or even mentioned in American media coverage.  Can’t imagine why that might be true.================================From CNN:House apologizes for slavery, ‘Jim Crow’ injusticesJuly 29, 2008
    Senate Unanimously Approves Resolution Apologizing for SlaveryBy Krissah ThompsonWashington Post Staff Writer Friday, June 19, 2009
    =======================
    Jeez!  Who knew that all our current members of congress are ex-slaveholders who abused and murdered all those black people?  But they must surely be guilty of it, or they would never apologize for it.======================Footnote:  To any libidiots who might read this, better stick with your heart-bleeding, hand-wringing emotionalism.  You just really aren’t capable of anything remotely resembling reason or logic.
    But please do get upset and hold your breath while you wait for the Fox networks to go away.
