so there was a uh...
you know that clive goodman who is the role l correspondent
i'd just love that
uh...
was jelled over phone happening
uh... he wrote a letter
and it's not being characterize this way in this piece by the guardian but at
this what i imagine it was
uh...
that supposedly
will be rather embarrassing to rupert murdoch james murdoch and indeed colson
uh... was their former editor at uh... news of the world
in the letter letter disregarded which was written for years ago but published
only tuesday
at being
today
goodman claims that the phone hacking was quote widely discussed
editorial meetings at the paper until colson himself
band further references to it
that colson offered to let him keep his job if he agreed not to implicate the
paper in hacking
when he came to court
and that his own attacking was carried out with quote the full knowledge and
support of other
senior journalists
whom he named
uh...
the claims are obviously troubling for david cameron
who hired colson after that stand
uh... on the basis that he knew nothing about the phone akki
so and other words
uh... at the very least
at the very least
david cameron is guilty of a
horrible job of that
uh... inc
credible
inability to judge the character of the people that he's hired
were you ever aspired for say
soviet union
now look now dot
well then
he all about the new of minister of defense
congradulations
whatever they can
i mean that's a little bit problematic
if you can't judge uh...
yeah because the defense about colson was are you really didn't know
we told cameramen didn't know you didn't know that he
uh... this is a little bit in paris
and it looks like a group written james are gonna be capped called back to
parliament
to justify the evidence they gave in their testimony
uh...
which were
well now there's two things accommodate one
that nobody else knew this this guy if these guys uh... were acting on their
own
without an eight you know these were loose cannons
thing that uh... murdoch said at the time
was that the law firm
had cleared them
giving them a clean bill of health
this is sort of like the functional equivalent of
the bush administration saying
our lawyers said that torture is not a legal so it's not a legal
the only problem is that those lawyers
still maintained
you guys like um...
john woo still maintain that to retaliate
uh... unfortunately for murdoch
his law firm saying
what what what what what what what what what
within set
so goodman's claims also raise serious questions about murdoch's close friend
and adviser less hinton
was sent a copy of the letter but failed to pass it to police
so four years ago
goodman sense this letter
and him
never sent it to police
and then they had no also
led a cast of senior murdoch personnel in telling parliament that they believe
colson knew nothing about the interception
of the voicemail public figures and that goodman was the only journalist involved
cc what's going on here
you know why goodman sent this letter duniya
goodman's later alleged letter is dated march second two thousand seven soon
after he was released
from a four month prison sentence
it's addressed in his international director of human resources daniel clark
and registers his appeal against the decision of him the company's then
chairman
to sac and from gross misconduct after he mated intercepting the voicemail
three members of the royal household
didn't list five grounds for his appeal
hot
if you believe
that goodman's letter was simply merely an appeal
to his firing
prepare to have your orifice shaky
what goodman was writing to tell them was
you know
and idea
you all knew what i was doing
colson new
at senior journalists at the news corp new edna and news the world now
and that
everybody knew what i was active
so much so that you told me not to say anything more about it did not even talk
about it anymore
that colson offered
to let me keep my job
if i do know their adverse spoke about it in court
and my putting on paper is an indication
of exactly
whom i'm willing to tell
and so when last name
who was
headed by a dot jones in the uh...
yes the publisher of all street journal
was approached by cops
he said you have any reason to be the colson go
can pass on this letter
because this is essentially a blackmail that
and add such up power
because it was true
and so uh... good men in this letter to ostensibly appeal his firing which in
fact is not what it was it is
basically a threat i will go public
with everything i know about you people
named
the senior journalists
and that payments for the private investigator who assisted him glenn
moore care we arranged by a nother
senior journalist
now these names of the journals have been redacted in this letter that's been
released to the press ebook
uh... at the request of scotland yard
man
how wonderful it in that list
i wonder what senior journalists in that organization
do you remember we'd
who's a popular news of and of the world editor
the big one
uh...
figured out jobs tomorrow tonight catholic cameraman
sits next to harry mandela nationalist born
biking
manner not him
had another name for a decade there's no way to tell
uh...
there's just no internet
there's no way to know but it was obviously some senior staff
senior senior it it sounds brilliant senior
there has not been implicated in this thing so far or been arrested
anyways
uh... goodman's letter adds this practice was widely discussed in the
daily editorial conference with explicit reference to it
was banned by the editor he reveals that the paper continue to consult among
stories even though they knew he was gonna plead guilty to phone hacking
and at the papers then lawyer tom krohn
knew all of the details of the case against him
he adds tom cronin the editor promise on many occasions that i could come back to
my job at the newspaper if i did not implicate the paper any of its staff in
my mitigation plea
i did not and i expect the paper to honored its promise to make
and
now let let me ask you this again folks 'cause this is the important thing
the guys service four months in jail
not go back to jail
he wants his job back
he sent a letter through the human resources person
if this letter
was full of lies
what would you do
if you're a lesbian tin
and you knew these were all lies
would you give it to the cops when they come a colin
but the claim that the paper induced him to mislead the court is one that may
cause for the problems for news international
all safe
the company also faces a new claim that had misled parliament
in earlier evidence the select committee in answer to questions about whether to
bought goodman silence it said he was paid off with a period of notice plus
compensation of no more
than sixty pounds
the new paperwork however reveals the goodman was paid a full year's salary
worth ninety thousand pounds
any further
one hundred and forty thousand pounds
in addition dot thirteen thousand pounds to covers lawrenceville
so it's a uh... quick back to the brother of the with away one hundred
forty
six goes into what two hundred and forty
uh... while they
they were three four times off
in their calculation what they power
