Police investigating whether Murdoch’s newspaper spied on UK government ministers, intelligence agents

UK Guardian:

The former Northern Ireland secretary Peter Hain has been told by the Metropolitan police that they are investigating evidence that his computer, and those of senior Northern Ireland civil servants and intelligence agents, may have been hacked by private detectives working for News International.
If true, would this not count as espionage?

NOTE FROM JOHN: If all of these allegations are true, we're talking espionage on a massive scale.  It would be difficult to believe that the top brass at the paper did not know that this was going on - someone must have been coordinating this extensive a spy network (again, if these charges prove true).  I'm still amazed that the US press isn't covering this story more attentively, as this has tentacles potentially reaching Fox News and the Wall Street Journal, both Murdoch properties.
