[rosin]

A big media scandal is breaking in Denmark: It looks very likely, that the Danish gossip magazine Se og Hør (See and Hear) for several years has bought illegal credit card information about several members of the royal family and other celebrities. The information should origin from an employee of the credit card administration company Nets or of a company working for them.
Due to the scandal, several people have resigned or been sent on paid leave, most notably has the former editor-in-chief of Se og Hør, Henrik Qvortrup, resigned his job as political commentator on the Danish public tv-station TV 2.
