Brooks 'asked to approve payment for wife-swap story'
Rebekah Brooks was asked to approve cash payments to public officials for stories such as a wife-swapping mayor and Prince William wearing a bikini at a party, the phone-hacking trial has heard.
She was confronted in the witness box at the Old Bailey about a string of emails addressed to her from journalists while she was editor at the Sun, many asking her to OK payments.
One concerning a story about a wife-swapping mayor from Tetbury in Gloucestershire specifically sought Brooks' approval to give money to a serving police officer who had provided "numerous tips in the past", the court was told.
The jury heard that others did not give the source but may have involved officials such as serving police or Army personnel.
Brooks told the trial she would only have sanctioned payment to a serving public official for a story relating to his work if there was a very strong public interest.

Woman cannot remember year of Clifford 'attack'
by Juliet Bremner - ITV News Correspondent
Under cross examination a woman who alleges she was assaulted by Max Clifford in a car has admitted she cannot remember exactly when the attack took place.
It was put to her by Richard Horwell QC that the events she described did not happen.
"It most definitely did happen," the woman replied.
Mr Horwell said that Mr Clifford didn't have a car in 1966, when the woman claimed he had "lunged" at her. The witness replied that she couldn't be exact about when it happened.
"I thought it was in 1966 but it could have been at the start of 1967," she told court.
The court heard from the defence that some of her friends, including her best friend at school, didn't know about the alleged assault.
Clifford faces 11 charges of indecent assault against seven women and girls - all of which he denies.
