It's morbidly seen in business as ok to screw anyone over, "that's business"

in football, a ref giving top teams more decisions because it's a big club = "that's football"

Politicians going after another member of the cabinet over a small issue, in an attempt to make a deal for themselves to get better jobs, or private funding from an outside benefactor = "that's politics, it's nothing personal"

celebs phones being hacked had gone on for years and seen as relatively bad form, but didn't upset the mainstream too much. The papers and police almost admit they have to do that in order to get good info in cases and stories = sold papers

I can see how, tangled up in all that, a paper would just carry on as usual and hack into a current news story, if it's rife on every other news story

It's just everybody with an ounce of compassion, in any field, was actually able to take a step back from the stressful hazy times we're in, where we kind of hate our jobs at the moment, and are constantly hit with price rises and energy hikes.......people have stood back and decided that this truely stinks

This should have really happened when Christopher Jefferies's life was pulled apart by the press because he lived in the same building as Jo Yeates

It'll happen again to many other poor sods who are left to pick up the pieces. It's just on this occasion, there just weren't the words or disgust to level at how awful the Milly Dowler thing was
