  The long-awaited Commons report into phone hacking is to be published later this morning, and if leaks are to be believed then it looks like James and Rupert Murdoch will escape being charged with misleading parliament.
MPs on the culture, media and sport committee are said to have been split on how heavily to criticise the pair, whose appearances before them last year were some of the most dramatic in Commons committee history.
However senior executives at the News of the World including its last editor Colin Myler and ex-legal manager Tom Crone are believed to be facing accusations that they lied to MPs.
We will all find out more when the committee makes the report public at 11.30am.
On an entirely different subject this morning, HuffPost also spoke to former cabinet minister Hazel Blears about social mobility and the need to get a wider section of society involved in politics.
Fact of the day: Blears is credited for the "five a day" mantra on eating fruit and veg. That has really rocked this authors boat. BLOG POSTS  | Jon Trickett MP: It is Time to Reject Rule by and for the Millionaires in Favour of the Millions: Starting With Boris in London
Boris's now infamous "chicken feed" comments - referring to the £250,000 per year income he receives for a second job writing for the Telegraph on top of his Mayoral responsibilities - confirm just how obscenely out of touch he really is. While he rakes in this "chicken feed", more than 400,000 London pensioners have lost money through the Tory 'granny tax' to pay for a tax cut for the super rich. And almost 120,000 London families face losing all of their tax credits because of the Tory tax credit cuts. |  | Brian John Spencer: Euro crisis: budgetary increase will compound austerity pain
Europe is in the midst of a growth and political crisis which has thrown the continent into a recession; yet across Europe centre-right Member States are holding to the status-quo and continuing to maintain budgetary restraint and austere spending policies. |  | Tara Lyle: Nice to See Cameron and Co Standing Up for the Human Rights Act
As the UK prepares to hand over the chairmanship of the Council of Europe to Azerbaijan later this month, it's worth reflecting on what's been achieved in our time at the helm. There had long been grumblings from the UK government about the perceived interference of the European Court of Human Rights, in 'British business' and the PM had vowed to use the UK's chairmanship of the Council to reduce the scrutiny of the European Court and reclaim British legal autonomy. That ambition has to some extent been achieved, but I would venture that in so doing the government has inadvertently become an accidental cheering squad for the Human Rights Act. |  | Reyhana Patel: The Muslim Vote Should Not Be Underestimated
Political parties who are aiming for strongholds in constituencies where the Muslim vote can be crucial must now work extra hard to engage with Muslim communities and address the issues which are on the top of their agenda. |  | Adele Wilde-Blavatsky: When Anti-Racism Becomes Anti-Woman: The 'Privileging' of Race above Gender
Has the anti-racist debate really become so closed-minded, divisive and fearful? That a white person cannot question any practice or ideology, if it is prevalent amongst people of colour? Does that mean to criticise porn one has to be a porn star? To criticise rape one has to have been raped? | | MOST POPULAR ON HUFFINGTONPOST.CO.UK |
