Politics: Did Piers Morgan know about voice mail hacking?

  • Say it ain’t so, Piers: Should CNN be worried about Piers Morgan? Private investigator Jonathan Rees, who paid off police to gain access to confidential information (and definitely fits Gordon Brown’s “criminal” descriptor), allegedly worked for The Daily Mirror when Morgan was the editor. Moreover, a British political blogger today alleged that Piers knew an award-winning scoop about a soccer manager having an affair was obtained through voice mail hacking. This is obviously not close to hard evidence, but nonetheless is worth keeping an eye on; lest we forget, Morgan was fired from that editorship after The Daily Mirror admitted to running faked photos of British soldiers abusing Iraqi civilians. source
