Washington Post Acting Executive Editor Matt Murray killed a story about the departure of a veteran and popular editor for a senior position at the New York Times.

For the first time, the media titan was accused in court of knowing about a massive British tabloid-hacking scandal and helping to cover it up. The new leader of The Washington Post was named too.

Lawyers for Prince Harry and Hugh Grant have alleged in court that The Washington Post's next CEO helped the Murdochs clean up after illegal phone-hacking incidents at their British tabloids.
