1. Decide whether you think celebrities should recieve payouts for having thier voicemails tapped - they put themselves out there in the first place so should our access to their lives be limitless?
Yes i think that even celebs have the same rights as a human, and privacy is a basic human right, and should apply to anyone weather wealthy or not, human rights apply to everyone. even celebs. Another reason could be that, even though celebs choose to put there selves out in the spot light of media and the public, they do not choose to have there privacy breached as even celebs have a limit to how much of there private life they want to be leaked and by phone hacking it just doesnt breach this limit it also exposes secrets that shouldnt be exposed and could lead to much worse senarioes such as the "Milly Dowler" case where it lead to much more anger and heartbreak then the "News iof the world" could have ever imagined.


3. Access one or two of his publications and examine the representation of this case by media that he controls.
 The fact that these are both average publications of the "News of the world" just shows how much of a gossipy newspaper it was. firstly the idea that the main news tends to be onm the front page of a newspaper and the fact that the main headlines are to do with gossip, eg: 'Prince Harrys split with Chelsy'.
