BREAKING NEWS... Bad day for Humble old Rupes and the Noos.

Fears over future of Sun newspaper after more arrests
Fears are mounting over the future of the Sun newspaper after more of the tabloid's journalists were arrested by police investigating alleged corruption.

By David Barrett, Home Affairs Correspondent

11:12AM GMT 11 Feb 2012

Five top journalists, believed to include Geoff Webster, the newspaper's deputy editor, were detained on suspicion of making illegal payments to police officers and other officials.

For the first time, the arrests broadened beyond payments to police, with a Ministry of Defence employee and a member of the Armed forces also being held by police.

The development suggests Scotland Yard’s Operation Elveden, set up to investigate illegal payments to police officers, is now focusing on a wider range of alleged illegal activity than previously thought.

You see Reefy, they recovered a hard copy of all the Murdoch ordered destroyed emails

So it looks like Rupes Operations in the States might now be found to of breached the "Big Bad" International corruption act of bribing / corrupt payments to Government officials or departments of other countries. This poor Reefy opens up a whole can of whoopin' towards the News International Stateside Operations. The very big end of town.

And it's only just beginning. luckily Rupes wouldn't let anything like this happen in his newspaper empire in Australia would he?

Just because it happend in the UK and now has trouble spreading over into the States... hmmmm here, narhhhh not likely.

(Before you IPA the stats about the profits... how about the profits of the newspaper section... and the 300million already lost, one paper down, and maybe another on the way and lots and lots of litigation just queing up)

Go Rupes, go you good thang. He's Tones mate you know.

Did the Murdoch rags have any headlines about the latests arrests in the UK, and how the Sun (UK) has just had the head of the snake chopped, and all of the staff are now worried about their existence.

Did the Murdoch rags have any headlines about how Rupes is on his way over there to sort it all out.

Join me ontop of the mountain where the air is fresh and the vision is clear. You can see a lot of things from up here.

Good to see the good guys big swing in the selected questioned poll by 4%, a whopping 8% swing around.

Good isn't it. As mentioned its really earth shattering revelations
I loved that bit about ALP secret polling that kept getting mentioned. Think about that.

While you are having peeps, have you discovered anything in the rags about Rupes International Organisations. I can't find anything about that. I heard that he has fled back to the UK to save the SUN ............ hmmmmmmmmmmm

Yank investigations underway now I hear. Apparently you have to be a fit and proper person to run an international news group. ....... hmmmmmmmmmmmm

18months out from the next erection. This could have a big bearing on our balanced media.

Rupes .... the bimbo media .... gee they remind me of Manly and Hartley.

Rupes doesn't phase me, as I've mentioned many a time, but I'm pretty confident the tv campaign leading into the next election will do more harm to Juliar than a mere newspaper

The ALP is imploding and I'm glad we have some time to the next election, that way we can stretch out the fun whilst they consolidate the inevitable outcome - which on next occasion, will be a result of the people's vote and not that of a half-assed mandate monger independent MP with a gambling bug up his butt.

Fair Work Australia's investigation of Dobell MP Craig Thomson over the past three years has taken longer than the 11-month inquiry into the 1963 assassination of US President John F Kennedy.

Even the Nuremberg trials that prosecuted Nazi criminals for humanity's most heinous war crimes were completed two years quicker than the seemingly endless probe into Mr Thompson.

The caravans moved on Spide. The meeja might not of and the Noalition is still waving back to 2007.

I guess time will tell. I kind of remember that the democratically elected Prime Minister Gillard was going to get the boot from office, sheezzzz gone, she will be knifed... she will.. what was it again.

within three months of the election, by march, by easter, next month, by November, they have the numbers and will move by December, hang on Christmas, wait its january, february, march ............... and that was only last year.

Yeppers that meeja has been right on the ball.

Next election is 18months away. 18 long months for some. I love it.

Oh... and Prime Minister Gillard .... I think I read they (inside source, not named, reliable, former staffer,) are counting the numbers.

You may as well read New Idea they have better insiders, former staffers etc.

Get the popcorn ready... the Private Insurance Act will be passed soon.

You can watch the vote live Here...... starts at 9am.

Whats that you ask, how many pieces of legislation passed by this do nothing Guvment. Some mighty big reforms. Great hey?

And 18 more months of it....... got to love that. The Big end of town love it too
