The cozy relationship between journalists and politicians exists as sordidly in the USA as in the UK. What is discouraging is the way that the ACLU now works with police and the FBI instead of protecting civilians from government abuses. The ACLU and major news facilities have become advocates for liberals and socialists. They use propaganda to deceive and to mislead civilians.

"On Sunday she showed up for a prearranged meeting with London police investigating the hacking and was arrested. She questioned on suspicion of conspiring to intercept communications — phone hacking — and on suspicion of corruption, which relates to bribing police for information.
Brooks' spokesman, David Wilson, said police contacted her Friday to arrange a meeting and she voluntarily went "to assist with their ongoing investigation." He claimed that Brooks did not know she was going to be arrested.
Hours after Brooks' arrest, Stephenson said he was resigning as commissioner of London's force because of "speculation and accusations" about his links to Neil Wallis, a former News of the World executive editor who was arrested last week in the scandal. Wallis worked for the London police as a part-time PR consultant for a year until September 2010."
