Jonathan Harmsworth, the fourth Viscount Rothermere, testified at a hearing on the phone-hacking scandal surrounding the British newspaper News of the World. He testified on media practices at the now-defunct tabloid.

Prime Minister David Cameron appointed Lord Justice Leveson on July 13, 2011, to investigate the role of the press and police in the phone-hacking scandal surrounding the defunct British newspaper News of the World. The hearings were divided into four modules, or phases: 1) the relationship between the press and the public, and phone-hacking and other potentially illegal acts 2) relationships between the press and police 3) the relationship between press and politicians 4) recommendations for improved policy and regulation. close
