News of the World became 'criminal enterprise', court hears
Former editor Andy Coulson and three of his most senior staff “utterly corrupted” the News of the World at the highest level and presided over phone hacking on an industrial scale, a court heard today.
Coulson, 46, had denied plotting to hack phones between 2000 and 2006 but was found guilty following a marathon Old Bailey trial which went on for 139 days.
