urors in the phone-hacking trial were today told to consider who knew about the "rotten state of affairs" that went to the top of the News of the World. Former editors Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson and ex-managing editor Stuart Kuttner are on trial at the Old Bailey accused of conspiring to hack phones. Summing up the case after seven months of evidence, prosecutor Andrew Edis QC told jurors: "There was a rotten state of affairs at the top of the organisation. What you have to decide is one or two steps about that."
