Former News of the World editors Rebekkah Brooks and Andy Coulson have been on trial in England for hacking people's phones. I've been following this trial closely for the past few months, and it looks like it will be over soon. I think the prosecutor explained the situation to the jury perfectly when he said: "What you have to decide is whether these one or two people above knew of that rotten state of affairs, which permeated the organization they were supposed to be running; or perhaps they never noticed?"
The rotten state of affairs refers to the hacking, which isn't even in question. There is a truckload of evidence of that, and multiple people have plead guilty and confessed.
The question is whether or not their bosses knew about it. What do you think?
