Two UK Murdoch journalists in apparent suicide bids
LONDON, Mar. 6, 2012 (Reuters) — Two senior journalists working for Rupert Murdoch’s News International have apparently attempted suicide as pressure mounts at the scandal-hit publisher of the now-defunct News of the World, London’s Evening Standard reported Tuesday.
Three sources close to the company confirmed that the two Sun journalists appeared to have tried to take their own lives, as investigations sparked by a phone-hacking scandal continue to expose other dubious practices by present and past employees.
Eleven current and former staff of the Sun, Britain’s best-selling daily tabloid, have been arrested this year on suspicion of bribing police or civil servants.
Police officer Sue Akers, who is heading three criminal inquiries into News International, said last week there appeared to have been “a culture of illegal payments” at the Sun.
