News Corp-Owned Dow Jones CEO Les Hinton Steps Down

The News Corp phone-hacking scandal continues to unfold with Dow Jones CEO Les Hinton, who has worked for Rupert Murdoch for nearly 50 years (!) and was chairman of News International when the allegations of phone-hacking were first made, resigning today.

Dow Jones & Co. is the publisher of The Wall Street Journal, which covers the story here with a bit more integrity than Murdoch's garbage news network.
