The Prime Minister said he believed the Leveson Inquiry, rather than a separate probe, is the right way to investigate the Government’s exchanges with News Corp as it is ‘far tougher than anything the civil service could arrange’.
Mr Cameron admitted discussing matters with Mr Murdoch’s son and top News Corp executive James Murdoch at a Christmas party at the Oxfordshire home of then News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks.
Asked whether he was embarrassed that he was even at the party, Mr Cameron said: ‘Clearly, after all that’s been written and said about it, yes of course one might do things differently.

Under scrutiny: Jeremy Hunt faces damaging allegations that he supported News Corp’s bid when he was supposed to be impartial.Mr Cameron said he did not recall the exact details of his conversation with Mr Murdoch but that it concerned the recent controversy over Business Secretary Vince Cable’s comments that he had ‘declared war’ on News Corporation.
‘What I recall saying, although I can’t remember every detail of the conversation, is saying something like: clearly that was unacceptable, it was embarrassing for the Government, and to be clear from now on this whole issue would be dealt with impartially, properly, in the correct way, but obviously I had nothing to do with it, I recused myself from it,’ he said.
Mr Cameron admitted that he courted Murdoch newspapers in opposition, but said it was ‘no great mystery’ as he had tried to win over many media outlets.
‘The thing that people are asking is was there some big deal, some big agreement between me and Rupert Murdoch or James Murdoch that in return for support for the Conservative Party I would somehow help their business interests or allow this merger to go through,’ he said.
‘That is not true. Rupert Murdoch said it under oath at the Leveson Inquiry, James Murdoch said it under oath, I will say it under oath.
‘I did want the support of as many newspapers and television commentators for the Conservative Party because I wanted to take the country in a different direction.
‘When it comes to the Murdoch newspapers, I was trying to convince a set of newspapers with largely centre-right, conservative views anyway, that they would be better off with the Conservative Party running the country.
‘There is no great mystery here – that is what I was trying to do.’
Mr Cameron said it would be ‘wrong’ to sack Mr Hunt because his special adviser Adam Smith – who quit on Wednesday as the row grew – had been ‘too close’ to the Murdoch empire and ‘acted inappropriately’.
A group of Missouri Republicans introduced a legislation last week called the “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
The bill, if you didn’t already know, would prevent schools from teaching any type of gay history.
The purpose … to prevent teachers from teaching it because those against it believes it’s a choice and not a sexual preference you are born with.
NewsOne columnist Michael Arceneaux wrote his thoughts on the issue in a column. Below is an excerpt:
I was introduced to AIDS, and subsequently, gay people at the age of 6, following the death of a relative. The words gay or homosexual weren’t the terms used to describe same-sex lovers, though. The word faggotwas, which from its very utterance of the word in all its hate-filled tone, instilled a great fear in me that would last well into early adulthood.
It would be years before someone bothered to declare that gay people, which I knew secretly included myself, were just folks with a sexual orientation outside of the norm. Such is a lesson I wish was instilled in me much sooner in my life, which is why I find it rather pathetic that Republican lawmakers in Missouri are going out of their way to prevent such not-so-outlandish facts from being shared with school children – particularly at a time when little by little gay Americans are inching toward wider acceptance.
















Brown’s tax hike would hit anyone earning more than $250,000 a year. Brown, a liberal Democrat, has borrowed the “tax-the-rich” theme from Barack Obamato make up for overspending during a poor economy.
California Governor Jerry Brown believes he can solve the state’s spending crisis that includes a $16 billion deficit by going after high earners. However, analysts say significant tax hikesduring a period of stagnant jobs growth could do more damage to the state than good.

The governor proposed his new budget plan that includes more spending Monday and in a YouTube video. Brown proposed an increase in funding for K-12 education provided voters approve his proposal to increase the state’s sales tax on everyone along with hiking income taxes on “the rich.”
Brown has championed tax hikes since he took office in January 2011; Republican legislators blocked his efforts last year. Democrats have controlled the California House and Senate for many years.
Brown would levy a 3 percent tax increase on those earning more than $250,000 which affects about 1% of taxpayers. Analystswarn that tax hikes will put a damper on economic growth and small business owners may need to cut back on employees to cough up more cash for state.
Brown also wants to raise California’s sales tax by a quarter of a point starting in January and lasting through 2016, however most analysts agree that once the state approves a sales tax increase it never goes away.
That would bump up the average state sales tax rate to 8.4%. Brown claims his proposal would bring in $8.5 billion. Brown warned voters that an additional $6 billion would be slashed on January 1, 2013 if they don’t approve his proposal.
California’s current budget took into account a $4 billion increase in state tax revenues that never occurred. The state is $3.5 billion below estimates; the bulk of the shortage was in personal income taxes, according to the controller’s office.
Asked at a press conference whether this week’s Facebook’s IPO would brighten the state’s fiscal outlook, Brown responded: “Who knows? That’s Wall Street.”
