On the first day of a trial against The Daily Mirror, the British tabloid newspaper Morgan edited for nearly a decade, it was alleged that he “must have known” about illegal voicemail interception. Morgan has consistently denied any knowledge of phone hacking at the Mirror, which he edited from 1995 to 2004.
The trial has reignited the phone hacking debate in the UK more than a decade after Rupert Murdoch shut down the News of the World amid revelations about unlawful activity.
The High Court was told that Morgan, a presenter on Murdoch’s TalkTV and Fox News, openly discussed phone hacking in front of colleagues on Mirror Group Newspapers premises, according to The Guardian.
Former Mirror political editor David Seymour told the court how Morgan played a Paul McCartney voicemail to reporters, in which the Beatles star attempted to patch up his relationship with then-girlfriend Heather Mills by singing And I Love Her.
In another example, Omid Scobie, a royal journalist who has close ties to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, alleged that he overheard Morgan discussing obtaining information from voicemails when doing work experience at the Mirror in 2002.
Morgan responded to the allegations today by posting a screenshot from a Season 26 episode of South Park, in which characters resembling Prince Harry and Meghan Markle embark on a “worldwide privacy tour.”
