Tabloid scandal (© Chappatte, distributed by Globe Cartoon. More cartoons on Chappatte's web site. Geneva-based Patrick Chappatte works for the International Herald Tribune, for Geneva newspaper Le Temps, and for NZZ am Sonntag. All cartoons reproduced with permission)
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – Rupert Murdoch is reportedly looking for buyers for his British newspapers, including the fame and shame tabloid News Of the World, as the scandal over phone hacking, payments to police officers and the possible continues to unfold Wednesday 13 July.
Other reports suggest he is willing to pump billions into his ailing empire, with shares in News Corporation plummeting. Sky News reports that he and his son and News International chief executive Rebekah Brookes may be called before Parliament next week as part of the widening inquiry.
Murdoch’s News Corporation British stable includes the Sunday Times and Sky TV but the larger group includes major international media players such as Dow Jones, whose chief executive Les Hinton was photographed flying into London to join the emergency meetings.

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – The work of some of the world’s finest cartoonists is bringing freedom of expression into the open, literally, along the Quai Wilson in Geneva, 10 June to 10 July, with a display of some 100 posters on large panels made available by the city of Geneva. Four cartoonists from countries where major news events have occurred since the start of 2011 are included.
Cartoonists No-Rio, Patrick Chappatte, Khalid Gueddar and Kianouch Ramezani (missing: Lassane Zohoré)
The four, in Geneva at the invitation of the Geneva-based Cartooning for Peace Foundation, are meeting the public Saturday morning 11 June from 10:30-12:30 at an aperitif/public opening: No-Rio from Japan, Khalid Gueddar from Morocco, Lassane Zohoré from Cote d’Ivoire, Kianouch Ramezani from Iran who is now in exile in Paris.
Most of the posters have been published in the cartoonists’ home countries. They cover human rights, armed conflicts, North-South inequalities, climate change, censorship and taboos.
Patrick Chappatte, cartoonist for the International Herald Tribune, Le Temps and NZZ, whose work appears regularly on GenevaLunch, is the artistic director.
The Foundation for Peace, a Swiss organization, was founded in 2010 with an initial CHF50,000 grant from the Swiss Foreign Affairs Department. Kofi Annan, former UN secretary-general, is the president of honour and French cartoonist Plantu is the president. Some 90 cartoonists from around the world are members.
Geneva and Cartooning for Peace to offer world cartoon prize
The foundation and the city of Geneva announced at the inauguration of the exhibit Friday that they will begin offering a “Cartoons for Peace” prize, the first of which will be awarded in the spring of 2012.
It will go to a living cartoonist for his or her exceptional contribution in the areas of human rights, press freedom, freedom of expression or related area, with particular consideration given to cartoons published in a political censorship context.
The winner will be given an individual exhibit or web site as a prize.
