A campaign group calling for reform of UK press-regulation has said it's a "humiliating and embarrassing" day for The Sun after they apologised for "seriously intruding" into Prince Harry's personal life. The board director of Hacked Off, Emma Jones, called for a police investigation following the "monumental decision". The settlement comes after a long-running legal dispute between the Duke of Sussex and News Group Newspapers (NGN) over privacy invasion.
