News of the World

"News of the World" was a British tabloid newspaper, known for sensational stories, celebrity gossip, and scandals. Founded in 1843 and published until 2011, it was one of the most widely read newspapers in the UK. The paper became embroiled in a major scandal after allegations emerged that its journalists engaged in unethical practices, including phone hacking and unauthorized surveillance of public figures, crime victims, and others. This scandal led to its closure in 2011 and prompted widespread discussions about media ethics and regulation.
