The logical play for the Murdoch empire now is to identify a couple of executives for sacrificial prosecution by the Metropolitan Police, to offer fresh evidence from their own NoW "investigation" of executive complicity to the prosecution, and then to spin that they have "cleaned their house" and expect other parts of Fleet Street to do the same.
Such a strategy, if spun vehemently, would also enable the Met Police to save a little face by successfully prosecuting the "phone hackers".
However, it appears that they've already paid over a million pounds in various "fees" and "settlements" to the likes of Mulcaire and Goodman, and still Mulcaire is naming names.
Given the financial and political reputations at risk here, only a cynic could claim that both a private and a public goon squad may soon be asked to, ahem, help resolve matters once and for all......
