As if Rupert Murdoch didn't have enough on his plate as he watches his News of the World crumble this week, actor Jude Law is set to speak to the FBI about allegations that the now-shuttered newspaper hacked into his phone in 2003.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the suit will have intercontinental ramifications as the British actor alleges the hacking took place at New York's JFK International Airport -- on US soil. This follows claims that the News of the World purportedly hacked into victims' cell phones after the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center.

All we have heard of are "claims" that News Corp. hacked into American phones, is there any evidence? It seems that this has been isolated to the British division of News Corp.

So far, there is zero evidence.

Too much preparation and there is no first step.

You are wrong. While not conclusive, there is evidence that the newspaper hacked the phones of some of the 9/11 victims.

Really proud of Jude Law for confronting the Rupert Murdoch Fox News machine mogel. It has been a long time since the British have really made Americans feel good to be associated with them. William and Katherine are cool. Harry is cool. Prince Charles being into organic gardening is cool.

Considering Prince Charles was suspect of Princess Diana's death, perhaps someone should make him part of that organic garden!

2003? Come on that is old news. Surely Rupert has learned his lesson. He says he has.
