The latest scandal began Tuesday when The Guardian printed a private letter written a month ago by Lord McGregor of Durris, who is chairman of the current Press Complaints Commission but has criticized suggestions of tighter controls.

Olympia & York Developments Ltd., the troubled Canadian developer, said today that its unsecured creditors want to delay their vote on a debt reorganization plan until Jan. 25. The 10-day delay would give the creditors -- who are owed about half the $8.6 billion Canadian ($6.7 billion United States) involved in the company's Canadian court proceedings -- time to review changes to the plan, Olympia said. The changes stem from meetings with creditors earlier this week.
