Britain's embattled News of the World, the world's top-selling English-language newspaper, will shut down after Sunday's edition. The scandal-hit tabloid, owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., has been at the center of phone hacking charges.
Victims of the alleged phone hacking, where reporters are said to have obtained PIN numbers and listened to voicemails, include a teenage murder victim, celebrities, royalty and at least one man killed in the 2005 London bombing.
Murdoch has condemned the allegations against News of the World as "deplorable and unacceptable." Murdoch's media empire extends to the U.S. to include Fox News and the Wall Street Journal.

USA Africa Dialogue Series - Re: CNN Breaking News.......oohhhhhhhhhhhhh.....flash back News of the World
Ooohhhhh didn't now he owned it. As a little girl in Africa, my Mom used to tell me stories from News of the World that sounded like Soap Opera materials. While in London, as students, she said getting the latest edition was almost a religion. While at that, her favorite musician was Tom Jones.
Ohhhhhh, sorry to hear the institution is folding but not sorry for Rupert Murdoch, a viral purveyor of literal mischief and yellow journalism on Fox.
