The case involves allegations that for years, the Murdoch tabloids hacked into voicemail messages and otherwise illegally got access to confidential information. Washington Post publisher Will Lewis was a top Murdoch executive 14 years ago when the scandal was at its peak.

They used the words exorbitant prices, the term black market. Young's attorneys say, look, The character of our client was maligned. He was not doing this for individuals who are desperate simply, but for deeper pocket organizations like corporations, non-government organizations from the U.S. and Europe, and that he lost millions of dollars as a result of this story.
