Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.) pressed Federal Communications Commission
members to investigate alleged misconduct by News Corporation at an FCC

Lautenberg wants the commission to investigate whether the illicit activities News Corporation executives are accused of in the United Kingdom, including hacking into subjects’ voicemails, bribing officials for information and obstructing justice, might extend to the United States.
