The article is about the News of the World, which was the biggest-selling Sunday newspaper in the English-speaking world.
Its story started in 1843 by John Bell who believed that people wanted to read about crime and scandal. In the 1950s the newspaper sold in more than 8.5 million copies. In 1984 the owners of the NoW transformed it from a broadsheet to a tabloid and focused on exposing the wrongdoing of the rich and famous. But in 2006 people found out that the NoW journalists had used phone hacking and bribing. That led to the closure of the newspaper in 2011.

I believe the press should balance freedom of expression with respect for privacy. As we all know freedom of expression, or freedom of speech, is a vital human right, and all mass media in the world use this right when they try to find some interesting news and do it faster than their competitors. However, freedom of expression does not mean permissiveness. I think it is OK when newspapers write about people's wrongdoing, but I am sure it is wrong to write about these people's families or their health - this is called private information. The balance can be achieved if newspapers send some kind of pre-publication notification to people concerned. Or there must be some rules concerning the so-called taboo subjects.
