  • The Leveson Inquiry Into the Cultures, Practices And
    For Distribution to CPs THE LEVESON INQUIRY INTO THE CULTURES, PRACTICES AND ETHICS OE THE PRESS WITNESS STATEMENT OE JAMES HANNING I, JAMES HANNING of Independent Print Limited, 2 Derry Street, London, W8 SHF, WILL SAY; My name is James Hanning. I am deputy editor of the Independent on Sunday and, with Francis Elliott of The Times, co-author of a biography of David Cameron. In the course of co-writing and updating our book we spoke to a large number of people, but equally I am very conscious that I, at least, dipped into areas in which I can claim very little specialist knowledge, so I would emphasise that in several respects there are a great many people better placed to comment and much of what follows is impressionistic. I hope that what follows is germane to some of the relationships that Lord Justice Leveson has asked witnesses to discuss. I hesitate to try to draw a broader picture, but I hope that some conclusions about the disproportionate influence of a particular sector of the media can be drawn from my experience. My interest in the area under discussion in the Third Module stems from two topics. One is in David Cameron, on whose biography we began work in late 2005, soon after Cameron became Tory leader. The second is an interest in phone hacking at the News of the World. Tory relations with Murdoch Since early 2007, the Conservative leadership has been extremely keen to ingratiate itself with the Murdoch empire. It is striking how it had become axiomatic that the support of the Murdoch papers was essential for winning a general election.

    36 TUESDAY, MARCH 25, 2014 LIFESTYLE Gossip Jay Z addresses Drake’s art reference criticisms ay Z has hit out at Drake in a new track. The Roc Nation boss addressed the ‘Hypher’ hitmaker during his verse Jon Jay Electronica’s new song, ‘We Made It’, after the rapper called him “corny” for using art references in his music. Jay Z raps: “Sorry Mrs Drizzy for so much art talk/ Silly me, rappin’ ‘bout that I really bought/ While these rappers rap about guns that they ain’t shot/ And a bunch of other silly thing that they ain’t got.” The reference comes after Drake’s controversial interview with Rolling Stone magazine in February, during which he criticized Jay Z and slated Kanye West’s “questionable” rap lyrics on his ‘Yeezus’ album. He said: “It’s like Hov can’t drop bars these days without at least four art references. I would love to collect [art] at some point, but I think the whole Rap/art world thing is getting kind of corny.” Speaking about ‘Yeezus’, Drake added: “There were some real ques- tionable bars on there.” Itr isn’t the first time Drake has criticized the two rappers, as he admitted he wasn’t on good terms with the stars when he slated Jay Z and Kanye West’s collaborative album ‘Watch The Throne’ on his 2011 track ‘I’m One One’. He admitted: “It was a lack of communication paired with natural competitiveness. But those two are Gods to me.” Liam Gallagher’s ex to write new book iam Gallagher is “very nervous” about former lover Lisa LMoorish’s autobiography.
