Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard said Thursday she has
been "shocked and disgusted" by the scandal engulfing News Corp.
(NWS) in the U.K and indicated that it could trigger a wider review
of the media in the country.
"I will be happy to sit down with parliamentarians and discuss
that review that people are obviously contemplating," said Gillard
in a press conference after a speech given at the National Press
Club in Canberra.
There is a review of electronic media convergence already
underway, though print media isn't covered by this review, said
Gillard. Australia's Greens party leader Bob Brown called again
Thursday for a wide-ranging review of the media.
A spokesman for News Corp.'s Australian unit in Sydney declined
to comment.
