Hugh Grant: How I exposed hacking

[whotaughtyou]

LACOSTE DAVID FOUND ANITA YU CHINESE FROM PAKISTAN MILLY

[AliyahZahra]

lol u could try real journalism,....well said...these guys really don't have moral values....

[halilkebab24]

he lookes like the guy of hangover

[jas2009aus]

Well done Hugh..., you are Awesome now i love you more

[jghatora1]

''You should try real journalism''... Very Right & powerful

[jesterjacobs]

Paul McMullen you are a cunt.

[2LisbonTreaty]

The media regulator Ofcom is consulting on plans to tighten the rules on media ownership. We have 3 days to persuade them to back tough new rules to stop anyone controlling too much of the media.

We know that if we don't put Ofcom under pressure, they'll be too timid in the face of Murdoch's power. But if thousands of us send in emails demanding a ban on anyone buying up too much of the media, we can push them to act. It worked to stop the BSkyB deal - it can work this time.

Join 38 Degrees.

[ExtremeBogom]

@2LisbonTreaty

Right on mate.  I'll be backing that.

[lissalives1]

Yeah....the English don't age too well...

[34GSH6329]

@lissalives1 I dunno David Bowie is nearly 70 and he still looks great.

[ExtremeBogom]

@lissalives1

Yeah....we don't care for external image; vanity.

Understand you don't have to be pretty to get on Television here.

There is no such thing as a "star" in England. That's all petty nonsense to us.

[fkwk2y]

 Hugh Grants you piece shit of bastard

[foook111]

When is gets real bitter towards the two at the end, Hugh rips him to shreds. Respek!

[Khy9760]

he's unique but the cloudy London sky make him a bit trasparent and without saturation...:) i love him already he's awesome

[Serenina88]

this man will never lose his charm! :D

[ExtraPingwin]

he`s so old!

[LoulouBeatles]

@ExtraPingwin Yeah, he looked much better in Bridget Jones's Diary!

[CaptainGalacticMusic]

Hugh Grant's the man!

[septemberfiretiger24]

hillarious.,, i love him

[AbiSophieHolland123]

Hugh Grant is fucking awesome.

[finalmattasy]

I recorded a conversation with my boss once in order to see whether or not I was able to explain myself well. When we had a disagreement later, I checked it and informed her that she was correct. She didn't dig HOW I knew it though! Won't do that again!

For myself, if I'm being bugged, I'm fine. If everything could be referenced to tape, there'd be allot more interpersonal respect imo

One's privacy is said to be one's own. But how concrete is ownership if keeping it is the other guy's job

[spacetraveller2521]

I really liked hugh grant, now I love him

[johnathanpunk7]

Click like if Thom Yorke sent you here!

[Br344]

Good for you. A celebrity taking the welfare of other people seriously when not even the government does. Good for you. I am very impressed Hugh Grant

"About Jordan, congratulations."

Brilliant.

[johnchannetshow]

British seem very easy to get old.

[johnchannetshow]

old 

[mrmooz]

good work hugh, that paul guy is a wanker, it doesn't matter how well off someone is, what social class they are, it comes down to a deliberate and unscrupulous invasion of privacy that should never be tolerated.

[2LisbonTreaty]

Great clip! "Try a bit of journalism,Paul,because you are not an idiot, you could probably do it."

[thinkBackB4forward]

Hugh shows that he can stand up to the digits on the hand that feeds him

[02Blackbeard]

Nice one Hugh. At least he exposed these vermin in the press and the Met.

[catcrazynigger]

he's too tiny and Ed o'Brien can act better :)

[4libertarianism]

Who is he to take the moral high ground? I recall questionable activity on his part...

[bigclockface]

Good for you Huge :-D at last someone saying the truth! I know someone whos life was ruined by newpaper reporters. It's important to have a free press but people need to live their lives without having their private phone calls hacked! Shouldn't be aloud!!!

[myy993]

I love the way he speaks. Yeah, i came here just to say that.

[StefanJohanssonX]

I love Hugh Grant, he defends our rights and he is a great actor.

JUST STOP USING YOUR PHONES FOR IMPORTANT STUFF DUHHH

[khanriza]

That reporter is trying to justify committing a blatant crime.

[daggerheart03]

Who's here because of Dead Air Space?

[PawlikDoc]

@daggerheart03 i am ))) hahahha

[mostelectriceel]

@daggerheart03 i

[talllerpleyades]

@daggerheart03 me

[Gazzar]

2:15 "I suspected he was doing it" - No you didn't Paul otherwise you wouldn't have told him about all your dirty laundry. You were caught out and you're too embarrassed to admit it. Go Hugh!

[emmyjo720]

Paul McMullen reminds me of David Brent....

[jasemccormick]

Fantastic Hugh. It definitely highlights the warped way that tabloid journalists view people and events.

[SmallFish616]

so why was this posted by radiohead?

[SpiralOut011]

@blackandproud75 Are you serious? Did you actually watch the clip or know anything about this scandal? This is not about a celebrity getting their phone hacked. This is about a systemic problem of corruption in big media which has connections to government and lawmaking. It has HUGE implications in so many areas, including your right to privacy. Like he said, governments realise how hard it is to get elected without the help of media, and think how big FOX news is. Not a big deal? Wake up.

[janebusby]

Im selling my news corp shares!! This shit will stick for YEARS.

[AreaCode978]

So...is Hugh Grant English? Just kidding.

[lilliesfortea]

his mouth opened, and i came. multiple times.

[nan00k1]

Major respect for an actor I never cared about befor.

[TheSpaffmaster]

cheers Thom

[xjames118]

I like Paul McMullen. He's like the evolution of the punk ethos, as a journo. Was the erasing of Millie Dowler's phone messages wrong? Obviously, but there's a lot to be said for the argument that tapping phones isn't the same as breaking into someone's house. Rage against the technology and the phone companies just as much as NotW. By the way Thom, no one's a bigger Radiohead fan than me, but worry less about being a social pundit and more about your music. King of Limbs was MEDIOCRE.

[0222621998]

@xjames118 - Paul McMullen is the evolution of the punk ethos? since when has stopping at nothing to make more money for one of the richest and most powerful men in the world and following a general conservative/ right wing agenda had anything to do with the punk ethos?

[xjames118]

@0222621998 Who among us isn't subservient to big business or the right wing governement (or the left-wing bourgeois government, which is even worse)? Any kind of punk would rather side with (to use extremes) Luthercorp over Superman, because at least Lex Luthor is an antihero & openly selfish. Everyone knows Murdoch can afford to do what he likes. The British general public believes they can do what they like, but where's our utilitarian, money-making backbone? Feckless geeks one and all.

[PrettyDark11]

Hugh Grant for Prime Minister. 

[workinoutgirl]

Good Man Hugh!

[tobmister21]

Hugh Grant has really gone up in my estimations.

[empressjulz]

@MyWestStealth me too. amazing

[loristroh]

The media will go to any extreme to get a story as we can plainly see, I dont even know what to really believe when I open a paper, you pretty much have to read between the lines. Fuck Em! Thank you Thom Yorke you are the TRUTH!

[psychosulk]

hahaha holy shit that ending, ZING.

[Seagerash]

Paul McMullen is scum and has been a PR nightmare for NOTW

[TheEraser92]

McMullen is a complete idiot, he just goes on about people's salaries rather than just admitting that they did the wrong thing and should take the punishment

[Batesification]

Well done Hugh Grant. You have gone right up in my estimations.

[TheMedde]

Hugh Grant just hit a home run! I really appreciate him doing what he did. He gave this idiot a black eye. Most celebs would have gone on vacation and left it alone. You rock Hugh!...For that IDIOT...Just because someone is rich doesn't make it right to hack into their phone either. It isn't a game. Its called evil, wrong, criminal, immoral and if you hacked into my phone and listed to my conversations I would kick your a-- and you would be eating through a straw for the next month.

[MrStonenbone]

Thanks thom



[0de2Joy]

Thom Yorke. Great guy. Hugh Grant in that last minute just hammered Paul, it was excellent. "You should try journalism, because you're not an idiot Paul, you could probably do it!" hahahaha

[TchockyPuritan]

Thom Yorke is just the number 1 buzz creator on the net, everything he shares or Radiohead does becomes an instant hit, wether it is TKoL with its 8 songs that dominated the Last.fm listenning chart for more than a month, or the other work he does on solo, its just direclty an instant internet buzz, and this video's rise of viewers in a short period of time after Thom posted a link on DAS is a proof of this fact I shall say.

[mikeylikesit100]

Two words: THOM YORKE... nuff said.

[mikeylikesit100]

@chja27: He's Thom Yorke motha fucka ! Recognise!!!!!!!! =D

[cnballj2]

This Paul McMullen guy trying to defend hacking the phone of a grieving family makes me sick. Why are they letting this idiot talk and defend his position? And although I can't say I've been a fan of Hugh Grant in the past, this has earned him a bit of respect from me.

[OhMySweetStars]

Who keeps putting that Paul guy forward to talk?!?! Steve Coogan tore his arse up, too!

[elizabetheowynbelle]

Who knew the star of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" would wind up a heroic whistleblower? Go, Hugh!

[vegansofThessaly]

Thank you Thom

[DieMenschMaschine85]

I hope Paul McMullen gets exposed as a the paedophile he is and dies of AIDS.

[Tommeh101101]

@chja27 He's in Radiohead. He posted this link on their blog.

[fso520]

Nice burn at the end... you should try journalism, your not an idiot, you can probably do it!

[ec123456789able]

Paul McMullen disliked this video, haha

Hugh is such a legend for tricking that prick.

[misshighmaintenance]

well done hugh you are not only absolutely spot on with your criticism of NOTW but still remain to this day one gorgeous individual

[jer1ndie]

Here because of Thom Yorke :)

[redside707]

Hugh for PM

[naterciapsouza]

Hugh Grant looks very well, amazing during this interview as always!

I like him, his career, performs!

He still is a good looking, interesting man!

Hugh remember me ED O' BRIEN guit from RADIOHEAD very much because their smiles, beautiful blue eyes and both are sexy, good looking mens.

My Best wishes Hugh.

[warrenmusic]

"Man, you should try real journalism because you're not an idiot, Paul; you could probably do it!" Hugh wins.

[adfro7]

legend.

[MultiBodysnatcher]

Fuck, Way to show them what a shred of intellect looks like, Hugh.

[AleroR]

Thom Yorke sent me here.

[opaquiosq]

Hugh Grant will play Ed O'Brien in the Radiohead biopic.

[1afrowolf]

Who's here because of Thor?

[Rioxka]

@1afrowolf Trololololo!

[ccleary2]

Thumbs up Hugh Grant. This is a serious issue but to be lame, you fucking pwned Mr. McMullen.

[jacksawild]

That's the irony of the right wing press. They advertise themselves as popular with the people but it is the people who they misinform and manipulate in order to hold on to their own privilege. I would piss on that sleazy tabloid journo even if he wasn't on fire.

[jacksawild]

Just when you're sure someone is a twat he goes and does something as beautiful as this. Good show.

[archdeng]

Bravo Mr. Grant

Bravo Mr. McMullen

Such plomp and dignitas you evince.

I shall emulate your magnificent stand in the face of Scandalous Storms and ravenous public opinion.

Bravo Sirs.

[Yolkemen]

Nice link Thommy boy!

[Chmusilator]

Well done Hugh.

[Aroddo]

and to think, that Scum McMullen is even trying to defend his position ...

[FatSmurf222]

lol 0:47

RE-RE-RE-REMIX!

[thebutterworthclub]

I never liked him as an actor, I now like him as a person, News International out of the UK

[Silentsam7532]

I always liked him as an actor. now I like him as a person as well.

[jorgepeterbarton]

these guys defence is laughable... they couldn't do anything other than dig themselves a deeper hole and expose their utter nonexistence of compassion on these interviews.

democracy 1, plutocracy 0

[makelvin]

I was never much of a Hugh Grant fan, but his action of standing up to these sleazy tabloid journalists and the whole Murdoch empire and exposed them for who they really are have definitely earned my respect. Way to go Hugh.

[racso452]

@makelvin I agree. And who cares if he makes millions more than the rest of us? He's still a human being with his own personal life and family and friends and private things that he deals with every day. Just cause he's famous doesn't mean he doesn't deserve the respect of privacy anyone else does.

[alisonfrenchofficial]

Thanks Thom! Anyone read Nick Davies' FLAT EARTH NEWS? After reading that book this happening wasn't really that shocking (....)

[sammmyp]

Why do the News of the world keep on using celebrity's wealth as a way of justifying bugging their phones

[DYE9]

Thom :)

[jedcraig]

Thanks Thom. BTW Staircase, mark that down as fab.

[apollonis19]

thanks thom

[rockerchick613]

Thomas Edward Yorke sent me here <3

[diadelastronauta]

he looks like "ed" from radiohead older brother

[PUMKINMANforever]

Brilliant! Thanks Thom for the tip and thanks Hugh for the spectacular pwonage! Down with Murdoch!

[1200polarbear]

There should be an investigation into what Murdoch's newspapers ( Wall Street Journal , NY Post) and his Fox News Channel are doing in the United States.

This is a top down management practice to the employees or reporters and to say that this type of journalism is not happening here is not believable.

This has to be looked into and the newspapers or media can not be trusted investigate themselves. one that is independent is needed.

The FBI should be looking into this. Someone independent.

[sjanes8]

Paul McMullen is an ass, good for Hugh Grant.

[GlaceDuFraise]

Looks like the exposed periodist just saw the video.

[HECTORGULL]

I was also invited by Thom, and I'm glad I came, Thumbs up to Hugh Grant bloody well done.

[allbearsrule]

the uploader must be wondering what happened with the view count ;-)

[motegi45]

Probably.

[eyelikesyou]

very interesting indeed. i am definitely here because of thom. there are lots of things, important things, that i would be completely unaware of if he hadn't brought them to our attention. just one of a million things to appreciate about thom yorke!

[crazyedd123]

'the news of the world closed a few days ago. conversely, an ant was squashed today; here's the report...'

[Pignoah]

He should have to eat an entire copy of the news of the world.

[crazyedd123]

@Pignoah that's pretty pointless, there's already enough shit coming out of his mouth, you wouldn't have the oppertunity to put any in.

[Pignoah]

@crazyedd123 Hahahahaha, true.

[ratfish]

what a fucking rat... hope someone gives him what's coming

paul that is, not hugh..

[MrSyrett]

Typical of the character of this scumbag - he's just admitted to being complicit in the hacking of the parent's of the Soham murder victims, and his first response isn't repulsion or contrition, but a joke. A fucking joke with a smile on his vile face

[MegaSuperdonk]

that dude Paul is such a tool bag. by humorous you mean an embarrassment to your integrity. well done Hugh.

[poppysmith11]

"by sheer coincidence i broke down in the middle of kent in my car"

[claraescher]

@Simmekbh I speculate that this McMullen character was probably following him. He was a papparozzi (sic) after all.

[rentoz]

Honestly I never liked Hugh Grant, but hell.... he was great here... a well served and well deserved slap in the face..

[futurfry]

hugh grant and thom are my two favorite immortals

[cruzer619]

It's to bad NEWS OF THE WORLD didn't hack former prime minister Tony Blair over the Iraq war.A war that was unjustified.But what you expect from these bloody-lying - deceiving politicians.All they do is spew lies after lies to less unfortunate without voices.Long live hypocrisy and silence...

I thought Hugh was an arse, but now he's a media kicking arse!!! Nice one Mr Grant. Also the guy from news of the world was on sunday questions live on Sunday, and he is so far up his own arsehole he's in Narnia. Hello right wing press, no one really reads what you write any more. Thank you Mr Yorke!!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. I think there is a lot of corruption going on in this world that we don't know about and probably will never know. It needs to be exposed like this! Thanks Thom Yorke for posting this link
