Some background about Rebekah Wade, the new "empress of Wapping," from Stephen Brook, writing in the Guardian newspaper on June 23, 2009:

"Earlier this month Tatler magazine offered a rare insight into the life of the Sun's ­editor Rebekah Wade. Describing his ideal ­Sunday, Wade's then fiance, now second husband Charlie Brooks, described how he and Wade liked to rise early "at their two-bedroom taupe-painted barn outside Chipping Norton" before flying to Venice by private jet for lunch at Harry's Bar. Then back to central London for dinner at Wilton's ­restaurant in Jermyn Street.

To some colleagues it sounded more like the life of a corporate titan than a ­tabloid editor, but , 20 years after she began work as a researcher on the News of the World magazine, Wade acquired the job to match the lifestyle.

Rupert Murdoch's News International announced that she would become chief executive of the publisher in ­September, giving her operational control over Britain's best-selling tabloids and also the Times, the Sunday Times and the freesheet London Paper."

Speaking of cretins: Michael Wolff, the author of a new book about Rupert Murdoch called "The Man Who Owns The News," from an interview with Jon Fine published by Business Week magazine on 12/1/08:

"...as the success of [News Corp's British tabloid] The Sun will tell you, there are lot of cretins out there and you can make a lot of money off cretins."
