This is what Rupert Murdoch's said as two of his top media executives resigned. Their boss has apologized to one of his company's phone-hacking victims and "mea culpas" could possibly continue for some time.

Shortly after Rebekah Brooks stepped down, media mogul Murdoch said he was sorry to the family of slain 13-year-old Milly Dowler. Then, Les Hinton, chief executive of News Corp.'s Dow Jones & Co. and another one of News Corp.'s top executives also resigned in the wake of the scandal that has victimized innocent citizens and has rocked the newspaper business.
