Woman stands at the top of the page in the male Culture of tabloid - New York Times

Requested A if it had never paid the police for more information, Ms. Wade, a supremely confident and striking figure with his wild shock of red hair, seemed unfazed and undisturbed. She said: "We have paid the police for more information in the past,".

It was, in fact, admitting to breaking the law, which pointed out, shortly after him. But Ms. Wade backtracked also commonly that it had come, stating that she could not remember all the examples and procedures, it seemed, to the brush off the whole thing as an another cheeky, walk-the-line incident in a career full of them.

Now 43 and known as his new married Rebecca Brooks, she used a winning combination of luxury, effrontery, boldness and tenacity to thrive in the brutal world, dominated by British men in the tabloids. It has risen to become the CEO of the News International, subsidiary of British newspaper of Rupert Murdoch.

Its proximity with Mr Murdoch, which is to be considered something of a favorite daughter (although it has four actual daughters), has protected her during the recent scandal sinking of the company, then even that parliamentarians called on her to resign.

The saga of long reached new heights this week when British reports revealed that the telephone of Milly Dowler, a 13-year-old daughter, murdered in 2002, was disrupted by the news of the world after she disappeared, but before his body was found, hindering the police investigation and adding to the distress of his parents. Ms. Brooks was editor of the news of the world at the time. It has condemned the hacking and said that she knew nothing about it. She refused a request to be interviewed for this article.

In extraordinary scenes in the House of Commons on Wednesday, the legislature after the legislature - the majority of the Labour Party - have increased and demanded that Ms. Brooks, one of the most powerful characters in the British media and a woman much feared up to now, should go. Ms. Brooks should "take responsibility and to withdraw, said Ed Miliband, the leader of the labour party."

But Mr. Murdoch issued a resounding Ms. Brooks, saying that his company is committed to conduct a full investigation of the recent allegations, under the direction of Ms. Brooks.

A part of his approach is strategic, said Clare Enders media analyst, founder of Enders Analysis. Ms. Enders suggested that Ms. Brooks was functioning as something of a firewall for Mr. Murdoch - a buffer against the allegations. "If she resigns, is an admission of guilt," she said.

And a part is emotional. "Rupert Murdoch loves her - he is just very, very attached to it," said a person who knows both socially. "" "". To be honest, the thing most sensible that News Corp. may make is to get rid of Rebekah Brooks, but it does. »

Birth of Ms. Brooks has been constant and rapid. She began his career in the media of stable Murdoch as Secretary to the news of the world, rising to become editor of the paper only 11 years later. In 2003, she became editor of the tabloid the Sun, Britain's best-selling daily newspaper, before being promoted to his current position, two years ago.

Since then, it was known for his creativity in obtaining articles and its lack of qualms about the way in which she has. In 1994, she prepared for the News of the interview of the world with James Hewitt, a lover of Princess Diana, when booking a hotel suite and hire a team of "kit it with secret band units in various pots of flowers and cabinets", Piers Morgan, her former boss and now a host of talk show CNN, wrote in his memoirs"Leaders."

Once started, furious that the document was about to be dug by serialization of the Sunday Times of a biography of Prince Charles, Ms. Brooks herself disguised as a woman of both household and hid for two hours in the bathroom of the newspaper, according to Mr. Morgan. When the press began to roll, she ran, grabbed a copy newly the Sunday Times and he brought back to the news of the world - who proceeded to use the equipment, Word for Word, in his own paper the next day.
