Another newspaper bites the dust. More jobs lost.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Britain’s embattled News of the World, the world’s top-selling English-language newspaper, will shut down after Sunday’s edition. The scandal-hit tabloid, owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp., has been at the center of phone hacking charges.<\/p>\n

Victims of the alleged phone hacking, where reporters are said to have obtained PIN numbers and listened to voicemails, include a teenage murder victim, celebrities, royalty and at least one man killed in the 2005 London bombing.<\/p>\n

Murdoch has condemned the allegations against News of the World as “deplorable and unacceptable.” Murdoch’s media empire extends to the U.S. to include Fox News and the Wall Street Journal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America! You are losing your freedoms, your children and your country.
