Prince Harry was phone-hacking victim and editors knew, London court rules

** I've posted this because of the UK's media, not because of any royal involved.

The judge's conclusion that the editors of the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and Sunday People knew about the wrongdoing vindicates Harry's vociferous arguments that senior press figures had known about, and covered up, wrongdoing.

The prince called for authorities to take action against those identified as having broken the law.

The ruling said among the editors who knew about the "widespread" unlawful behaviour was high-profile broadcaster Piers Morgan, the Daily Mirror editor from 1996 to 2004, who has become a leading critic of Harry and Meghan.

Morgan hit back with a defiant statement of his own, saying Harry's mission was not to reform the press but to destroy the monarchy with Meghan.
