LONDON — Prominent Britons who accuse a tabloid newspaper of hacking into their phone messages said Saturday they were not satisfied with the paper’s apology and offer of compensation.
The News of the World has acknowledged eavesdropping on the voice mails of public figures and says it will pay compensation for an unspecified number of “justifiable claims.”
A lawyer for actress Sienna Miller, left, one of several celebrities suing the paper, said the actress has not dropped her lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch’s paper, which she accuses of “outrageous violations of privacy.” Miller accuses the tabloid of repeatedly accessing her voice mails over the course of a year and using the information for stories about her, her family and her former partner, Jude Law.
