Since the latest incarnation
of the Murdoch empire's phone-hacking scandal at its British newspapers, we at AlterNet have been speculating on the future of Les Hinton, CEO of the Dow
Jones Company, which publishes the Wall Street Journal. Today, following on the heels of Murdoch's top executive at News International, the
News Corporation division that comprises its British newspapers, Hinton, too, resigned.
Before he came to New York in 2007 to take the helm of Dow Jones after Murdoch's acquisition of the Wall Street
media giant, Hinton had the job from which Rebekah Brooks resigned today: executive chairman of News International. Hinton
appeared before the culture committee of the British House of Commons to declare that phone-hacking at News of the World was limited to the work
of one reporter, Clive Goodman, who covered the royal family. in his testimony, HInton said he based his claim on his own
internal investigation. (Media Matters' Eric Boehlert breaks it down here.)
The rancorous debate
over the debt belies a fundamental truth of our economy -- that it is run for the few at the expense of the many, that our
entire government has been turned into a machine which takes the wealth of a mass of Americans and accelerates it into the
hands of the few. Let me give you some examples.
Take
war. War takes the money from the American people and puts it into the hands of arms manufacturers, war profiteers, and private
armies. The war in Iraq, based on lies: $3 trillion will be the cost of that war. The war in Afghanistan; based on a misreading
of history; half a trillion dollars in expenses already. The war against Libya will be $1 billion by September.

Church in Stillwater, Minnesota, has faced criticism this week for its anti-Catholic views, including preaching that the Pope is the Antichrist.
Bachmann
has long been a favorite of religious conservatives for her outspoken views on her faith, but her decision to sever ties with her church for the sake of
her presidential campaign is surprising many:
